Song lyrics (incomplete)

Just because I feel like posting something (and no, this isn't inspired by life, just an idea):

Do you like music? Do you like beauty?
Hate to lose it? Just why is it, you never knew me?

Well, I like music. And I like beauty.
I'd hate to lose it. But I can't lose it, I never had you

I have lost my mind, I have lost my name
Was like a drive by, when you walked by, and didn’t look my way

I wish I were your enemy
Rather hate you than this apathy
for if I were your enemy
finally you would think of me

You are the brightest I have ever seen
See the highest, stars above this, black cloud over me

Am I a shadow, don't I radiate?
You just can't note, that I'm of note, till I black your day

I tell my agents, march against the dawn
war we wage then, feel my rage then, I won’t wait too long

and if I were your enemy
if I made you hate me
and if I were your enemy
would you then remember me

Would you rather

Have you ever played that game, "Would you rather...?" What if you were posed with, would you rather witness the earth at its creation, or destruction?
    For me it's no contest. I'd rather witness the Earth's destruction in all of its fireworks and majesty. Can you picture it? Witnessing the first light and the entire Earth in smoldering majesty? And to see evolution fast-forwarded and see all life snuffed out like so many candles before a tempest. I'm guessing, of course, that somehow humans will end all life, and the earth just then spirals itself into a wasteland. But maybe I'd get to see volcanic activity forming and shaping the earth,  glowing in an unimaginable molten red. Wouldn't that be something? To watch the planet go from red  to blue and all green completely gone, replaced by black ashes and a dry, cracked surface. But what am I saying? It wouldn't be complete without an explosion to start it all.
