Temple

 

 

Sincerely, I say these dirty words

I nearly let my heart's hurt steal my vision

I nearly let it leave me blind

Now, I know the innocence I've been seeking

Was leaking out of me the entire time

 

Good love can build a temple

Bad love can do the same

 

It's a humbling projection

To see the flaws in others that bother you about yourself

Cause, though two-way mirrors see through

They also reflect

The very things you try to forget

 

Good love can build a temple

Bad love can do the same

 

It's all about learning what the walls protect

And, if the yearning inside your chest

Is calling you to destroy or erect even more
