On the Stairways to heaven

I can't make it to the end

The sprialing climb 

can never begin

 

How many steps 

does it take to reach Heaven?

How many times must I stop 

and give in?

 

The temptations of 

each level arise

and each time I think

"This is my time to shine"

 

No more-

No more- 

I cant take the climb

The walk down 

is easier than up

and the road to evil

is quicker than this.

 

The stairs to Heaven-

Whoever said it was easy?

For I failed miserably to climb

to the golden gates, 

were the clouds shine.

 

All I see now is the darkness

of a shawdow. 

And the stairs-

I see stairs-

There spiraling down.
