Matthew and the Atlas Temple song 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

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
