This is why you don't know if the water is safe to drink or the food is safe to eat or the air is safe to breath. This is why the dam failed, the plane crashed, the bridge collapsed, the town flooded.
This is why you don't know when the storm is coming or where the hurricane is making landfall.
This is why, no matter how high the water rises, or how much the fire burns, how hard the earth shakes or how fast the twister moved, nobody's coming.
You're on your own so he could have this.
