lyrics

Temple Doors (c) 2014 Jeff Petersen
Marble the table the cobblestone fair
Prince's and maidens and feasts to prepare
Out in the field where the mountain elf play
There is a goblin to scare them away
CASTLES ARE COLD AND THE KINGDOM IS OLD
AND THE PRIESTHOOD IS WELL UNDERWAY
THE MERCHANTS OF TIME AND THE REASON OF RHYME
YES THE MARKET IS NOW UP FOR SALE
Battle is fought in the name of the land
Ribbons and carpets and spells to command
Fall to their knees as they chant and they pray
Pray to a statue to take them away
MEDALS OF WAR BUT THE HORSE IS NOT SURE
AS SHE DRINKS FROM THE WELL IN THE DARK
AS FOR THE MOON IT WAS AUCTIONED AT NOON
IN A SALE AT CENTINEALL PARK
Behind Temple Doors Ancient Temple doors
Behind Temple Doors
Gallons of wine is the pastor too drunk
The service is late he's asleep with a monk
The profiteer comes and the profiteer goes
Collecting the taxes from everyones woes
Ramadam come with the hum of the sun
And we pray for the virgin again
Political shows as the temple door closes
The wounds from the cross start to mend
Behind Temple Doors Ancient Temple doors
Behind Temple Doors x 2
In the cathedral the sorcerous game
Confess to the priest in an unholy way
Under the robe where the truth dissapears
The dragon awakes after 400 years
Ramadam come with the hum of the sun
And we pray for the virgin again
Political shows as the temple door closes
The wounds from the cross start to mend
Behind Temple Doors Ancient Temple doors
Behind Temple Doors x 2
