The Turning Point

What will be the turning point?
   The final straw?
 
Obviously we're going there....
   Like an uncontrollable freight train!
 
Steaming down the tracks,
   Whistle screaming to passers-by,
      No working brake system,
         No way to stop!
 
Am I the only one aware
   Of this catastrophe ahead?
      The only one "well" enough
         To see it coming around the bend?
 
Am I the only one wondering
   How many casualties there'll be,
      How many lives
         will be changed
            FOREVER?
