“Do I pray now? Should I pray?”
“Hell, I’ve never prayed a day in my life and I shouldn’t start just because of this.”
“Even if I started, who would I pray to?”

I wiped the sweat off of my face and turned up the volume on my iPod. It’s so difficult to concentrate with everyone else screaming around me. I’ve got to drown them out.

“There’s a chance we’ll make it, right?”
“No, don’t be stupid. This is it.”
“Well, take a look. Maybe everything will be okay.”

Foolishly, I sat up and looked outside. Smoke was billowing off the wings and we were in a nosedive. There’s no way we’re making it out of this. I turned away from the window and placed my hands in my lap. I can keep calm at least for my last few moments.

“So when you fall to the ground and finally get back to reality…”

That did it. I yanked the headphones out of my ears and tossed the iPod aside. The tears started flowing as I tried to curl up into a ball in my seat. I could only think one thing:

“Thanks for ruining my last moments Sevendust.”
