From the monster in the deep
To the man in the sky
And the angels by his side

All the people looking down
With their frowns and furrowed brows
And their whos and whys and hows

From the sixteen silent stars
And the fear that's in their hearts
And the death that does them part

To the creature with his eyes
Focused firmly on his prize
With his whos and whats and whys

Said the beast with broken tongue
"Oh please don't leave me here with him
He is snapping at my ankles
My resolve is growing thin
Can't you see that I am bound
By forces I don't understand?"
So the man reached out his hand

From the clouds approaching close
To the beast now so morose
He has given up all hope

"Oh the angels feigning sympathy
Have surely got it in for me
I guess this must be their victory

Now the monster in the sea
Is slowly taking hold of me
I think I've thought all I shall be"

The hand is reaching out
But still hoping, he's in doubt
Still in wanting, he's without

Said the man up in the sky
"Oh I am trying, please be brave
But there is a chance that you, my son
Are too far gone to save
Can't you see that I am only as good
As my arm is long?"
And like that the beast was gone

So the audience applauds
And the critics in their hoards
Offer all they can afford

Now a masterpiece on stage
And a legend on the page
It will last throughout the age

And unknowing of his pain
They sing of how the beast was slain
And that man forever reigns

Now the beast with broken tongue
Will never see the light again
And the man defends his actions
As the interests of all men
"Can't you see that I have only done
As any other would?
As any other should?"
