Lyrics

[00:22.61] I was left to my own devices
[00:30.12] Many days fell away with nothing to show
[00:37.14] And the walls kept tumbling down in the city that we love
[00:44.73] Great clouds roll over the hills bringing darkness from above
[00:53.00] But if you close your eyes
[00:55.76] Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
[01:00.49] And if you close your eyes
[01:03.26] Does it almost feel like you've been here before?
[01:09.23] How am I going to be an optimist about this?
[01:13.23] How am I going to be an optimist about this?
[01:17.22] We were caught up and lost in all of our vices
[01:24.88] In your pose as the dust settled around us
[01:31.81] And the walls kept tumbling down in the city that we love
[01:39.33] Great clouds roll over the hills bringing darkness from above
[01:47.55] But if you close your eyes
[01:50.42] Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
[01:55.12] And if you close your eyes
[01:57.89] Does it almost feel like you've been here before?
[02:03.69] How am I going to be an optimist about this?
[02:07.81] How am I going to be an optimist about this?
[02:10.26] If you close your eyes
[02:34.14] Oh where do we begin, the rubble or our sins?
[02:41.22] Oh where do we begin, the rubble or our sins?
[02:48.97] And the walls kept tumbling down in the city that we love
[02:56.50] Great clouds roll over the hills bringing darkness from above
[03:04.71] But if you close your eyes
[03:07.58] Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
[03:12.24] And if you close your eyes
[03:15.20] Does it almost feel like you've been here before?
[03:21.19] How am I going to be an optimist about this?
[03:25.10] How am I going to be an optimist about this?
[03:27.52] If you close your eyes
[03:30.10] Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
