Wondering - 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 something I fear now drawing close

Could it be you?

Whose is that voice?

Is it now time to make a choice?

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
