Lyrics

Ankh

[Verse 1]

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

[Chorus]

Visions of you

Make the vision of me seem

So in touch, only to see

[Verse 2]

When will she be a mother?

"Soon," said tales from the gutter

Notions of herself ran out

Months pass then she unveils

Mourning over her buckle

Boy with whom she lies moves out

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]

Now she lives by a river

Streaming thoughts carry with her

Child before her child runs out

Coins of wealth ever present

She becomes a thief of the benefit system

Poisons from before dry out

[Bridge]

(Then you will feel it)

Future's changed

Visions change

[Chorus]

Visions of you

Make the vision of me seem

So in touch only to see

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]

Call from the mountaintop

What you desire from me

You never needed any help, you never needed anyone
