Lyrics Temple - Matthew And The Atlas

Temple

We wanted to remember everything that we’d forgotten
We wanted to believe that we were not fading
In the temple we were unfolding
In the crooked shadow of the morning
In the half-light we saw a window to the door
We were just lonely kids
Living in a faded town
We were just lonely kids
Just
We were living in the moment when the past became the present
A memory unfurling, a simple truth returning
In my mind I hear you laughing, through the pines I hear you calling
And that little bird would sing, I remember everything
We were just lonely kids
Living in a faded town
We were just lonely kids
Just
Why did you come round here, knocking at my door
With your painted face, asking for more
In the temple we began to change
We were all falling
We were just lonely kids
