Altars Over Stages Lyrics

"Sir they've all gone off to him"

I said to that baptizer

We sat and watched his friends

Leave him in the dust

"It's a cold world

And we all just need the son"

He said with a smile

I chose Altars over stages

Cause heaven is my wages

I don't need the spotlight

So make me a silhouette

I won't fret

I don't care

You can take me anywhere

Heaven is my wages

I chose

Altars over stages

Even angels in the sky

Can fall down to the depths

Clip their wings with their pride

And rot whats in their chest

The funny thing about pride

Is that you have it all your life

But the moment you think you dont

Its gotten in your eyes

Has it gotten in my eyes?

I chose Altars over stages

Cause heaven is my wages

I don't need the spotlight

So make me a silhouette

I won't fret

I don't care

You can take me anywhere

Heaven is my wages

I chose

Altars over stages

I chose Altars over stages

Cause heaven is my wages

I don't need the spotlight

So make me a silhouette

I won't fret

I don't care

You can take me anywhere

Heaven is my wages

I chose

Altars over stages
