Going Down Poem by Patti Masterman

This world is going down
Burning fast and going down
Everything we thought would last forever
We never knew who we were dealing with
Nature has no hard fast laws
A living organization too complex to contain
We manipulated as long as we were able
We got nothing left now, when she gives up the ghost

This world is going down
Take a deep breath, it might be your last
This world is going down
Don’t remember the last time I saw home

Take nothing for granted
Going down, it's going down
This ship is going deeper waters
Hold on tight
Enjoy the sunrise while it lasts
Because nothing lasts forever

This world is going down
Take a deep breath, it might be your last
This world is going down
Don’t remember the last time I saw home

Burning fast and going down
This ship is going deeper waters
Enjoy the sunrise while it lasts
It's too late now to change our ways

Take nothing for granted..
