Strap me in,
I'll chance a leak where my blood will boil.
I'm ready for the opportunity
to be alone, on top of the world.

I said my silent prayer,
and now I'll take the
tallest step man has made.

Oh please, while I free-fall
into this atmosphere
let me embrace this rare moment where
I suspend speeding in the middle.

I'm neither here nor there.
All together I'm descending above
that sweet blue haze
into the Garden of Eden.

Never again will I take for granted
another step on this terra firma.
Yet, I'll always hold dear that day
I spent 13 minutes and 45 seconds
being the only man to fall from heaven.
