Temple Of Trusted Hearts

The leather's cold against the skin
A cage for everything within

Wrapped in shadow, shielded eyes
Measuring the worth in hollow lies, ah

Collecting ghost notes in the dark
A heavy stone without a spark

But the heart beats faster than the gold can flow
We're only passing shadows on the road

Let the empathy anchor where the iron rusted
Build a temple out of hearts we trusted
Build a temple out of hearts we trusted

White cotton moves like breaking dawn
A silent prayer before the light is gone

No walls required for the spirit's flight
Just the resonant echo of the night

Give the breath away to find the soul
Making something broken whole

But the heart beats faster than the gold can flow
We're only passing shadows on the road

Let the empathy anchor where the iron rusted
Build a temple out of hearts we trusted
Build a temple out of hearts we trusted

The void is wide, the glass is thin
The glass is thin, what's left of us?

When the dust gets in, we are the things we hold
We are the things we hold, we're the story told

But the heart beats faster than the gold can flow
We're only passing shadows on the road

Let the empathy anchor where the iron rusted
Build a temple out of hearts we trusted
Build a temple out of hearts we trusted

Dust to dust, just dust
