Altar Lyrics by Poppy

Bubblebath

2016

[Verse 1]
She'll take you straight to the bank
Don't marry that gutter skank
I know the pressure is high and she's gonna cry
But that old news needs to die

[Chorus]
You're standing at the altar, baby
I'm coming straight for you
The getaway car is waiting and we'll ride into the blue
Church bells don't ring, church bells don't ring too soon
You're standing at the altar, I'm coming for you

[Verse 2]
I know that she has a gun, it's an emotional one
And in your vulnerable state, she loves to manipulate
And when you're weak and in pain, she comes around again

[Chorus]
You're standing at the altar, baby
I'm coming straight for you
The getaway car is waiting and we'll ride into the blue
Church bells don't ring, church bells don't ring too soon
You're standing at the altar, I'm coming for you

[Bridge]
She'll never love you like I love you
'Cause we were born to be together, babe
So don't you leave me for another
Don't say "I do"
You're standing at the altar, baby
I'm coming straight for you

[Chorus]
You're standing at the altar, baby
I'm coming straight for you
The getaway car is waiting and we'll ride into the blue
Church bells don't ring, church bells don't ring too soon
You're standing at the altar (Oh)
You're standing at the altar, baby
I'm coming straight for you (Straight for you)
The getaway car is waiting and we'll ride into the blue
Church bells don't ring, church bells don't ring too soon
You're standing at the altar, I'm coming for you
