Temple and Arch by Every Black Day

There’s a story I was once told
In an inn so strange and old
Out there at the worlds end
That I’d never seen before or since
Tale of a man who fell through
Cracks in the world he knew
And of a girl who could open doors
Where there had been none before

(Chorus)
Temple and arch
Temple and arch
This Place so familiar, so bizarre
Out of time, out of mind
A place you might find
If you should lose your way
If you should stray too far away
Place so familiar so bizarre
Temple and arch

World above and the world below
Dark places called Underside
Where those who fall through the cracks
Now and forever reside
Doesn’t matter where you’re from
Or anything you’re yearning
You may still find your life turning
Turning inside out

Chorus

At first I couldn’t believe
All the things revealed to me
‘Til I saw with my own eyes
It was true, was my world too
There’s a story I was once told
In an inn so strange and old
Out there at the worlds end
That I’d never seen before or since

Chorus
