&quot;Some say the world will end in fire,<br /> Some say in ice.<br /> From what I&#039;ve tasted of desire<br /> I hold with those who favor fire.<br /> But if it had to perish twice,<br /> I think I know enough of hate<br /> To say that for destruction ice<br /> Is also great<br /> And would suffice.&quot;

The damage we do to this earth,
It can’t be undone,
No matter how hard you try.
No matter how strong you think you are,
There will always be a scar,
A permit mark,
Forever,
The mistakes we made,
Changes everything for the new generation,
They’ll never know what used it used to be,
How the world was,
Before the stress took over,
Before you could have fun,
Now…
Sit straight,
Heads up,
Fallow rules,
All A’s,
Go to collage,
Or go no were,
Forget your life,
The damage we do on this earth,
Can’t be undone.
