Lyrics Temple - Matthew and the Atlas

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
Ohhhhh, ohhhhh
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 your laughing, through the pines I hear you calling
And that little bird would say, I remember everything
Ohhhhh, ohhhhh
We were just lonely kids
Living in a faded town
We were just lonely kids
Just
Why did you come around 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
