Alone a man lies
In the grace of angels
Breath swells like tide
On alabaster beach

What possessed him  
To climb to heaven
What arrogance of man
To count among irreproach

A silver light shines
All around him
He touches
But does not hold

A tremble falls on him
A fire erupts in the blood
Man is not meant to hear
The melody of heaven's song

Faith guides not the wicked
His heart wants only love
Fore selfish sycophantic lust
Did bring him to this place

He climbed his way to heaven
Alone the man, he lies
In grace of sleeping angels
He fell a thousand times
