Wondering de Van Der Graaf Generator

I will arise:
In the depths, i will open my eyes;
As my breath almost fails me, survive.

Wait - there's something unclear,
There's soemthing i fear now drawing close.
Could it be you? whose is that voice?
Is it now time to make a chice?
Ah - that irrational pain!
This ridiculous brain now bursts with joy.
Could it be me? could it be now?
Should i begin to take my vows?

I will return:
As i live, as i breathe, as i burn
I swear i will come through,
With my hands stretching out in the dark,
With my eye pressed up tight to the glass,
Wondering if it's all been true.
