Ashes of the Altar

Miss May I

Poisoned vows, spit 'em out
Our trembling hands pretend it's heaven
So delicate
Showered in gasoline
We felt the heat

As we walked straight into the altar's flames
You spit it out
You promised that you'd

Love me if I falter
Love me when I fall
Ashes of the altar
Love can't save us all
Let the fire burn

Garden of rot
This wilted mess in place of Eden
So poisonous
We let the venom flow
We let it go

As we walk straight into the altar's flames
You spit it out, you promised that you'd

Love me if I falter
Love me when I fall
When I fall
Ashes of the altar
Love can't save us all
So I'll keep crawling from comfort
I exit the light
Ashes of the altar
Love can't save us all
Let it burn

In love and death
Forever is never a sure bet
It's laid to rest
Whenever the fire is unkept

In the ashes of it all
Would you still

Love me if I falter
Love me when I fall
Ashes of the altar
Love can't save us all
So I'll keep crawling from comfort
I exit the light
Ashes of the altar
Love can't save us all
Let the fire burn
