See You In The Afterlife Lyrics by Foster The People
The world is spinning madly
Seeing kaleidoscopic lights
And it’s like we’ve all been hypnotized
As we’re drifting off to paradise
Well, I used to go by Johnny, but now you can call me Jackie O
Walking in stilettos, breaking down the walls like Jericho
Today, I woke up crying, so I went into a church to pray
They said excuse me, but you’ll have to leave, or we’re calling security
The headlines got us thinking that we’re all gonna die
Then, convince us that we have to buy a ticket for the afterlife
Well, the world is spinning madly
Seeing kaleidoscopic lights
And it’s like we’ve all been hypnotized
As we’re drifting off to paradise
The self-important faces
Are just laughing at the signs
The Coliseum’s empty
I guess I’ll see you in the afterlife
Well, it’s European summer, and the skies are looking kinda mean
Well, I’m thinking of a holiday, what’s the weather like in Kiev
And the sun is peeking out over all the tired faces
My friends were going out last night, and I still haven’t heard from them
The headlines got us thinking that we’re all gonna die
Then convince us that we have to sell our ticket for the afterlife
I guess I’ll see you in the afterlife
I guess I’ll see you in the afterlife
The self-important faces
Are just laughing at the signs
And the Coliseum’s empty
I guess I’ll see, I guess I’ll see you in the afterlife
