Altars Lyrics

Altars lyrics

Can you feel the silent cries

Over solemn need

Underneath the city lights

They're altars in the street

Through the walls I hear the sound

Of a beggar's plea

Looking for salvation from

The altars in the street 



And it's so sad

People drifted away on a concrete sea

It's too bad

Faded lives 



CHORUS

Burn, won't you burn in me

Eternal flame won't you light my name

Burn in me

If God is grace then bless the child

Who's left alone tonight, Set him free, Free to fly 



Cause it's so sad

People wasted away in such a subtle display

It's too bad

Sacred lives 



CHORUS 



If I stayed close to

Everything you once held onto

And I know, yeah I know

Sometimes you hurt 



CHORUS 



Burn, won't you burn in me

You're my eternal flame why don't you light my name

Burn, burn, burn
