Pompeii

And the walls kept tumbling down in the city that we love. Great clouds roll over the hills bring darkness from above. You know when people hate posting song lyrics on social networking sites and what not? Jacob Sepulveda hates this song. But you know what. I'm going to sing it anyway! 

It's so interesting. It's about the destruction of Pompeii! Okay, that doesn't really sound that exciting but I swear it is! So many people died in the rubble, smoke, and no doubt just the plain chaos and brutality that would be sure to follow the explosion.

I was watching a documentary the other day about Pompeii. Did you know there were people that stayed in the city regardless of the warning? They didn't expect the tragedy that occurred or maybe they knew some sort of cataclysmic event would happen, but they didn't expect the magnitude of this event. The city was known for it's riches and sheer majesty. Maybe some stayed because they thought whatever was going to happen wouldn't be as bad as everyone thought and expected to possibly usurp the riches of others that heeded the warning to leave the city.

Doesn't Rome remind anyone of our society today? Or at least America? I mean we modeled our system somewhat after theirs, our monuments and style of architecture, even the general functions of society under certain laws and policies mirror that of ancient Roman ways and times. I do wish I could live back then. 

And then maybe we'll be destroyed as a society and some one will make a song about us!

And the fire came falling right out of the sky.. something, something, somethiiiinggggg.
