[Verse 1]
Sun going down on Coruscant
Sky burning orange and gold
Young ones laughing in the hallway
Too pure to be told
I feel a tremor in the staircase
Like a storm behind the door
Bootsteps on the marble
That I never heard before
[Chorus]
Oh
The temple's falling
Baby
Brick by holy brick
Every vow that we were sworn to
Turning heavy
Turning thick
Got my saber in my right hand
In my left
This empty truth
Yeah
The temple's falling
Baby
And it’s shaking loose my youth
[Verse 2]
Brothers in the white and blue
March in a jagged line
Helmets hide their faces
But I know those souls are mine
Orders in the comm-link
Cold as polished steel
"Stand down
Master Jedi"
Like my fate’s a signed-up deal
[Chorus]
Oh
The temple's falling
Baby
Brick by holy brick
Every vow that we were sworn to
Turning heavy
Turning thick
Got my saber in my right hand
In my left
This empty truth
Yeah
The temple's falling
Baby
And it’s shaking loose my youth
[Bridge]
Smoke in the grand hall
Statues cracked and scarred
Echoes where the elders
Used to speak of stars
I reach for the light
But the dark feels just like home
Crowded by a thousand troopers
And I ain't ever felt this alone
[Chorus]
Oh
The temple's fallen
Baby
Dust on every creed
Children’s names in ashes
Where the gardens used to bleed
Got my saber in my right hand
In my left
This broken proof
Yeah
The temple's fallen
Baby
And it's all that's left
All that's left
Of my truth
