When I see the title, I think of dread. I don't feel dread when I hear this song. In terms of getting that feeling across, I don't think it effectively communicates it. It's an early attempt, so I'll give it the benefit of the doubt.

I wish you had more information in the description about your creative process; what you were thinking when creating this piece and its title. That way I can give a more accurate review that isn't just based off my personal taste but is also based on how clear your intent came across.

Personally, I like this song. The writing style reminds me of some of my early work, before I created my current NG account, which is also why I'd like to know how you made this song.

I hope you find this helpful. :)

Hi! Sorry about the description, I've never really though about, much less how, to put this kind of thing in words before.

With the title and overall tone, the themes I had in mind were more about Inevitability, Change, and acceptance thereof.

Change can be scary, whether it's in the form of a literal meteor that will end life as we know it or otherwise; but it's something that can't be stopped, whether we choose to accept it or not.

I like to think humanity's collective last-week-on-earth-maybe wouldn't just be everyone hiding in their basement in fear, but a time of reflection and release; very emotionally-charged, not completely negative or positive. A chance to come out, free of the consequences that no longer feel like they'd be "the end of the world" now that the world is literally ending.

The latter bit of the song is kinda representative of that last bit of catharsis.

Hope any of that made sense!
