Beginning of the End

Beginning of the end, he said to me,
Hold on to your hats, and get ready to flee,
There’s screaming and shouting,
And the world sounds like it’s ending,
But it’s ok, because you’re with me.

So he took my hand, and off we went,
Up the mountain we made our ascent,
Behind us the fire and flame consumed,
Everything that was destined to be doomed,
And on destruction, the world was bent.

We ran and we ran, to escape destiny,
Atop the world, we yearned to be free,
The whole world was ending, what could we do?
And in that moment, we both knew,
The world entirely, we had to flee.

But where could we go, what could we do?
Heaven was too far and it was true,
The world was ending and we were trapped,
Our lives, like others had been mapped,
We had no choice.

Destiny awaited as fear empowered us,
It was all gone, why make a fuss?
Take a deep breath and take the plunge,
Accept it now and begin to lunge,
Fall into it.

Embrace it, because it’s happening now,
You can’t fight it so don’t ask how,
Grab the moment and hold onto it,
You don’t know where you’re going,
So remember this for what it was,
Not for what it is.
