Although the general surface meaning is clear, the more specific, deeper meaning and desired tone are not clear. The topic is designated \"science.\" What is being implied? Is this a reference to entropy or any other scienfific notion? This will have an impact on the choice of words. Is this a title for a scientific piece? Is the idea of \"caving in\" (collapsing) essential to the meaning, or will the idea of \"ending\" suffice? Is there any irony or humor implied?
