Of Virtue - Death Of The Altar Lyrics

Of Virtue Lyrics

"Death Of The Altar"

Here's the church, here's the steeple
Here lies the end of you and me
Champagne for the people
Three cheers, a perfect tragedy

Threw it all away, flowers on a grave
Held you until death did us apart
Said my name in vain, looked me in the face
Even when you stabbed me in the heart

There's poison in the holy water
(Welcome to the death of the altar)
They say what loves you makes you suffer
(Welcome to the death of the altar)
A deadly sin, a deadly truth
I've been losing faith in you
If you're my God, then God's a monster
Welcome to the death of the altar

No sympathy for the Devil
You tied the knot to tie the noose
Haystack and the needle
Buried my bones to hide the proof

Threw it all away, flowers on a grave
Held you until death did us apart
Said my name in vain, looked me in the face
Even when you stabbed me in the heart

There's poison in the holy water
(Welcome to the death of the altar)
They say what loves you makes you suffer
(Welcome to the death of the altar)
A deadly sin, a deadly truth
I've been losing faith in you
If you're my God, then God's a monster
Welcome to the death of the altar

Gave me love in name alone

Gave me love in name alone

Welcome to the death of the altar
Gave me love in name alone
Welcome to the death of the altar
Welcome to the death of the altar
Welcome to the death of the altar

There's poison in the holy water
They say what loves you makes you suffer
A deadly sin, a deadly truth
I've been losing faith in you
If you're my God, then God's a monster
You're a monster

Welcome to the death of the altar
