Matthew and the Atlas - Temple lyrics

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
