Analysis of The Sky is Falling
The Sky is Falling
But I can't see it
I can feel it on my skin
I can feel it in my hair
I can hear the sky
Falling faster with out any care.
The Sky is Falling
I can only hear it
Hear the rushing of the wind
Hear the particles in the air
I can touch the sky
Falling faster with out any care.
The Sky is Falling
I can touch it
Feel the pieces on my face
Feel my skin rip and tear
I am one with the sky
Falling faster with out any care.
