Altar Lyrics

Eyes to the sky

On the red-eye home

I'm just in time to see the show

Then I'll have to watch you go

Always in flight

Won't somebody please just get this girl to settle down

Take a breath and look around

Such a funny thing to try to explain

To be in love and in pain

At the same time

Oh, I wish I...

I wish I could

Alter my mind, alternate timeline

I wanna relive the past

I miss my old life

And it's there I fell down to my knees

At the altar to what could've been

I'll bow my head, walk out the door now

I watch the sky, the orange light

The stars aren't out tonight, the smoke has smothered them

As we burn the world that's under them

I went to the doctor and just like the last one

She asked me, "What's wrong with your head?"

You're fine, you're leavin' soon

Light some herb under the moon, and

Alter my mind, alternate timeline

I'm tryna relive the past

I miss my old life

And it's there I fell down to my knees

At the altar to what could've been

I'll bow my head

Walk out the door now

Train's running late

Missed last one so I spent the next year running from it all

Storms outside, the earthquake shakes my walls

I went to the doctor and just like the last one

She asked me "What's wrong with your head?"

You're fine, just take the pills

And make sure you get up on time, and

Alter my mind, alternate timeline

Why can't I relive the past?

I miss my old life

And it's there I fell down to my knees

At the altar to what could've been

I'll bow my head

Walk out the door now

I'll bow my head

Walk out the door now

I wish I

I wish I

I wish I

I wish I
