Foster The People - The Holy Shangri La Lyrics

All of my life, all of my life, all of my life
I've lived in some kind of dream
And when I open my eyes, open my eyes, open my eyes
I see interdimensional beings

And it's alright, it's alright
Tension with the good times, it's alright
And when it's midnight
We're alright
The fever breaks the sunlight
And washes all our shadows away

Close your eyes
But nobody sees us, nobody sees us
Oh, my love

We'll be together through hard times
It's okay to rely on something you need and to believe in
To get through to the other side
'Cause in the good times, we forget
We got to hold on to the hope that we first believed in
So we never get swept away

Taking a ride to the Holy Shangri-La
It's hard to know what is real
But all of my life, all of my life, all of my life
I tried my best not to fear
Ooh, the only way to get out is if we go through it all, we go through it all
Ooh, so take my hand into the light
I know it's easier to close your eyes, hey, hey, hey

The time has come to save your prayer
An astral song
A prophet's glare
A white horse breeds
But don't despair
When the death knell rings
The time is near
So come in close into my heart
Like there's nobody else
Step in time, look into eternity

Through hard times
It's okay to rely on something you need and to believe in
To get through to the other side
'Cause in the good times, we forget
We got to hold on to the hope that we first believed in
So we never get swept away
