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. |
