I was left to my own devices |
|
Many days fell away with nothing to show |
|
And the walls kept tumbling down |
|
In the city that we love |
|
Great clouds roll over the hills |
|
Bringing darkness from above |
|
But if you close your eyes, |
|
Does it almost feel like |
|
Nothing changed at all? |
|
And if you close your eyes, |
|
Does it almost feel like |
|
You've been here before? |
|
How am I gonna be an optimist about this? |
|
How am I gonna be an optimist about this? |
|
We were caught up and lost in all of our vices |
|
In your pose as the dust settles around us |
|
And the walls kept tumbling down |
|
In the city that we love |
|
Great clouds roll over the hills |
|
Bringing darkness from above |
|
But if you close your eyes, |
|
Does it almost feel like |
|
Nothing changed at all? |
|
And if you close your eyes, |
|
Does it almost feel like |
|
You've been here before? |
|
How am I gonna be an optimist about this? |
|
How am I gonna be an optimist about this? |
|
Oh where do we begin? |
|
The rubble or our sins? |
|
Oh where do we begin? |
|
The rubble or our sins? |
|
And the walls kept tumbling down |

In the city that we love |

Great clouds roll over the hills |
|
Bringing darkness from above |
|
But if you close your eyes, |
|
Does it almost feel like |
|
Nothing changed at all? |
