Rift Valley - Van Der Graaf Generator[00:00:00]

At the edge of the canyon[00:00:42]

Looking down upon the haze[00:00:45]

Which hides the future of this planet[00:00:51]

Home our earth through all the days[00:00:55]

Which have been and will come[00:00:59]

I hear the running feet of those yet to follow[00:01:04]

At the end of such life as I call my own[00:01:14]

I glimpse that yet to come[00:01:18]

Springing from me in the future[00:01:23]

Trees of family shall run[00:01:26]

I have carried the seed[00:01:31]

Conceived from me all people multiply forward[00:01:36]

When it's over they will dig me from the gorge[00:01:49]

And proclaim that I am the first man[00:01:52]

First soldier first speaker first tool user[00:01:54]

That with me civilisation began in some order[00:01:57]

I have stumbled[00:02:00]

Is it right or am I planned[00:02:01]

Still I feel it[00:02:14]

Still I know that some day[00:02:14]

The world will fall to this human hand[00:02:16]

This clenched fist[00:02:18]

If that's the way it's going to be[00:02:55]

I can only say good luck[00:02:57]

You men who follow on from me[00:03:02]

Must crawl your way out of here[00:03:04]

Or all our lives'll be[00:03:05]

Trapped in the chasm[00:03:07]

Trapped in the chasm[00:03:36]

The dying day[00:03:46]

I stand upon the edge stare down[00:03:47]

At what's to come below[00:03:50]

In a way there's all the future in me[00:03:55]

Destiny already known[00:03:59]

Already tired in my heart[00:04:03]

I start the long walk forward[00:04:07]

Into rift valley[00:04:12]

To rest in rift valley[00:04:16]

Still instinctively trying to save my kind[00:04:22]

I survive into the future[00:04:25]
