Shangri-La

I feel as if I've been here before
In this palace of peace
Forever leading me astray

For a fleeting moment
I stand at the gates of Shangri La
A voice calls to me
Beckons to me
I hear her say

"Stay here with me
Be one with my beauty and majesty
No need to be afraid
I'm made for you"

Is this all meant for me?
Burdened by the gifts of God for eternity
This is too grand for truth
I've waited all this time to fall in love with you

Mother nature
Son of God
Neglectful of Earth
Wait for me
(I've waited far too long for this, I've given every piece of me
An earthly paradise for man, breathe life into me)
I will fix everything
Until we meet again

"Stay here with me
Be one with my beauty and majesty
No need to be afraid
I'm made for you"

Is this all meant for me?
Burdened by the gifts of God for eternity
This is too grand for truth
I've waited all this time to fall in love with you

But was it ever enough?
Was it ever enough?!

Forgive me
For the carelessness I display so selfishly
I've seen this coming from the writings on the walls
I knew the day would come where Shangri La would fall

Please forgive me

"By now you should know not all is written in stone
You have time to rebuild
And time to atone
I'm giving you one last chance to prove that you can change
From here on, mankind will never be the same"

"Stay here with me
Be one with my beauty and majesty
No need to be afraid
I'm made for you"

Is this all meant for me?
(This is all meant for you)
Burdened by the gifts of God for eternity
(These gifts for eternity)
This is too grand for truth
(This is the truth)
I've waited all this time to fall in love with you
(I've waited all this time to fall in love)

Mankind will never change
Binging on the greed that festers within
Mankind will never change
Binging on the greed that festers within
