Cover art for 1,000 Witnesses lyrics by Circa Survive

its about religion, and a search for god, lines like

if a fountain did fall from the sky, therd be a thousand witnesses our eyes are open. -it means if just one evidence of gods exsistence was there one miracle so to speak, then all would see because so many are searching.

it was an anchor refers to how religion tells people what to do, so they listen, if you sin your going to hell for instance. so in that sense its an anchor holding them there and religion can collect your money and in a sense control you. so they tell you that to cement you in or pour concrete on your roots, so they can keep using you.
