There are thieves outside of our window
They don't belong, they don't belong
Is there nothing sacred or hallowed
It's time to move on, we've got to move on
And leave this all behind

Cause this house is getting colder
These shadows will not die
They're haunting every corner
The ghost of Shangri La

There are visions in every doorway
They're never gone, they only haunt
Where these spirits bring only heartache
I try to stay strong, I try to hold on
But I'm slipping from inside

And these children at my shoulder
They don't see the tears I cry
Still fighting to get over
The ghost of Shangri La

And this house is getting colder
These shadows will not die
They're haunting every corner
The ghost of Shangri La

And these children at my shoulder
They don't see the tears I cry
Still fighting to get over
The ghost of Shangri La
