"Ankh" lyrics

"Ankh"

People stare and discover
Feeble friends and their brothers
Make the child in you come out
Tempting boys with another
Heartfelt praise undercover
Potions in your blood run riot

Visions of you
Make the vision of me
Seem a swirling attraction
Only to see

When will she be a mother
Soon said tales from the gutter
Notions of herself ran out
Months pass then she unveils
Mole hill over her buckle
Boy with whom she lies moves out

Now she lives by a river
Streaming thoughts carry with her
Childhood for her child runs out
Coins of wealth ever present
She becomes a thief of the benefit system
Poisons from before dry out

Now you feel left out
Visions change
Visions change

Visions of you
Make the vision of me
Seem a swirling attraction
Only to see

Call from the mountaintops
What you desire from me
You never needed any help
You never needed anyone
