"Climb over the church wall" he said

"You can feed the koi in the pond

Climb over the church wall in your sunday dress

Be sure to feed the koi in the pond"

It's a long long climb going back in time.

All of me wants to be... believe

That the angels will find me saint veronica

All of me wants to be... believe

That somehow you will save me saint veronica.

He said "kneel before your judges in reverence

Your penance for the woman you'll become

You knew if you talked there'd be a consequence

Your sentence for the woman you'll become"

Ten days of hell in satan's cell.

All of me wants to be... believe

That the angels will find me saint veronica

All of me wants to be... believe

That somehow you will save me saint veronica.

Dream of dimensions

Then cross through the veil to them

Wrap yourself in linen holding jesus close

Calling saint

Calling saint

Saint veronica.

"Climb out of the belly of the beast" she said

"Become a witness out of the abyss

The temple of the soul will have to heal the flesh

Only when you're whole can you forgive

But it's a long long climb

It's a long long climb".
