Endings

When death comes you think it will be a thunderclap
That it will devastate you
Leaving nothing behind

When death comes you think it will be a thunderclap
That it will be explosive
Overwhelming you

When death comes you think it will be a thunderclap
That it will strike you down
Bringing you to your knees in one hit

When death comes you think it will be a thunderclap
The sound of it decimating you
Flattening you to nothing

But when it finally arrives
It will have been on the road to you for some time
Painstakingly but surely making its way

When death comes you think it will be a thunderclap
But when it gets to you
There is no sound
There is nothing
