[Intro]
The seconds fly by
The hours count down
The sun exits the sky
For the stars to abound

[Verse 1]
Day by day by day
Months turning to years
More lifetimes fray
As death brings tears

[Chorus]
So, while I’m alive
Going to strive to thrive
Live it up the utmost
Till my time turns post

[Bridge]
The seconds fly by
(The hours count down)
The sun exits the sky
(For the stars to abound)

[Verse 2]
Minute by minute by minute
(Does it still compute)
Our hours upon hours
(Relinquishing powers)

[Chorus]
So, while I’m alive
Going to strive to thrive
Live it up the utmost
Till my time turns post

[Bridge]
The seconds fly by
(The hours count down)
The sun exits the sky
(For the stars to abound)

[Chorus]
The seconds fly by
(The hours count down)
The sun exits the sky
(For the stars to abound)

[Outro]
The sun exits the sky
(Find the reason to why)

The passing of the night
Watching the stars align
Looking for a sign

Looks like the odds
Are refuted by the gods

That girl’s… just not right
Makes your head explode
Comes to a battle of wits fight
With a numbskull… and that’s all

A SCIENCE NOTE
The Past, Present, and Future of Climate Change
We first developed the hypothesis of the non-linear acceleration of climate change in the 1990s. By the early 2000s, this hypothesis evolved into established climate theory, now widely accepted as scientific fact. My lab partner, a Doctor of Physics from Ohio State, and I collaborated to provide crucial evidence supporting this theory. Over time, we have observed a significant shift in the doubling time of climate change impacts — the rate at which the effects intensify. Initially, the doubling time was approximately 100 years, but it has since decreased to 10 years, and more recently, to just 2 years.

This trend means that the damage caused by climate change today is double what it was two years ago, and in two more years, it could be four times worse. Unfortunately, this rapid acceleration does not appear to be an anomaly, especially given the record-breaking events we’ve witnessed this year, even during the typically cooler La Nina phase. If this trajectory continues, the outcomes will be far more catastrophic than previously expected.
