Anchoress (7" Version)

The summer rain is what she loves
And singing to the rhythm of the thunder above
Prone to possession from the earliest age
They put her upon this earth to live in a cage

She watched the tears from the statue wall
For this and eternity behind the walls
Cut the ties and the null advice
The world and everything she'll leave behind

Sanctuary of a different kind
She made her vow
She made up her mind
Heaven knows it ain't the right place to be all the time
She started to believe again
She heard the rain and the thunder above
She's gonna find a new way to channel her love

The pilgrims come to lick the sign
They get their faces painted with a tribal design
The seasons turn, she fashions the shrine
Arranging all the apples in symmetrical lines

The tunnel leads to an ancient mound
And there we open up the ground together
A boat is waiting by the river tonight
A rogue, she wake up when she feels the sunlight

In the language of her own kind
She made a vow
She made up her mind
Heaven knows it ain't the right place to be all the time
She started to believe again
She heard the rain and the thunder above
She's gonna find a new way to channel her love
