The Calling Lyrics

And after the death of
Her rapist confessor
She entered into a convent

And taking on a habit
Attempted to join them
But that was not to be

Maria spoke of visions
They could not comprehend
She claimed to talk to angels
And even to their messiah

The sisters were appalled
For her, they held no quarter
They would not entertain
Her calling tossed aside


Rejected from the cloth
And all she'd ever known
Stuck somewhere in between
The expected and the unknown

The road that lies ahead
Is full of twists and turns
But she will find her way
And will not be deterred
