"Patiently, We Wait For Armageddon"

Draw a line  
Under a cracked sky  
Patiently we wait for Armageddon.  
 
Chrode the ozone  
The layers cascade  
Revealing static  
And damages air  
it causes are skin  
To peel  
And loss of hair.  
 
Unknown elements  
burns what left  
as the sky caves in.
With its canopy removed  
The deformed carcass of the world  
Screams out in agony.  
Whats left of the human race  
Ignores mother natures screams  
And joins in on the customary  
End of the world looting.  
 
The human race  
Never stood a chance  
To busy destroying  
Them self's  
Neglecting the earth  
missing out on all  
its majestic splendors  
And infinite wonders.  
 
And I must offer  
Apologies to insect life  
Its to you we pass the baton  
As you Inherit this scorched earth.  
The grand design  
The scheme of things  
Was just one big  
Cosmic joke.  
 
But you will never see  
Me smile under a cracked sky.
