"Altar" lyrics

Shame had kept me frozen
The path already chosen
Just whether I chose to align
I watched my life unfolding
Watched it start eroding
Had to learn to dream and die

With nothing left to offer
I'm standing at the altar
Of mother, father, daughter
Awaiting time
I couldn't watch her suffer
I know I should've called her
I'm sorry that I chose to hide

Always heavyhearted
The loved ones gone departed
Angels circle in the sky
I call out for them often
See them in the garden
Search for them in dreams and signs

With nothing left to offer
I'm standing at the altar
Of mother, father, daughter
Awaiting time
I couldn't watch her suffer
I know I should've called her
I'm sorry that I chose to hide

To dream and die
To dream and die
To dream and die
Dream and die
To dream and die
To dream and die
