[00:17.930]I was left to my own devices
[00:25.290]Many days fell away with nothing to show
[00:31.710]
[00:32.760]And the walls kept tumbling down
[00:35.060]In the city that we love
[00:40.300]Great clouds roll over the hills
[00:42.890]Bringing darkness from above
[00:48.380]
[00:48.570]But if you close your eyes,
[00:51.330]Does it almost feel like
[00:53.200]Nothing changed at all?
[00:56.130]And if you close your eyes,
[00:58.610]Does it almost feel like
[01:00.680]You've been here before?
[01:04.220]How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[01:08.380]How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[01:12.030]
[01:12.480]We were caught up and lost in all of our vices
[01:20.000]In your pose as the dust settles around us
[01:27.030]
[01:28.080]And the walls kept tumbling down
[01:29.210]In the city that we love
[01:35.430]Great clouds roll over the hills
[01:37.950]Bringing darkness from above
[01:43.340]
[01:44.110]But if you close your eyes,
[01:46.670]Does it almost feel like
[01:48.720]Nothing changed at all?
[01:51.430]And if you close your eyes,
[01:53.980]Does it almost feel like
[01:56.060]You've been here before?
[01:59.620]How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[02:03.950]How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[02:07.370]
[02:15.350]Oh where do we begin?
[02:18.960]The rubble or our sins?
[02:22.700]Oh where do we begin?
[02:26.660]The rubble or our sins?
[02:30.210]
[02:31.170]And the walls kept tumbling down
[02:33.110]In the city that we love
[02:38.160]Great clouds roll over the hills
[02:41.230]Bringing darkness from above
[02:44.840]
[02:47.770]But if you close your eyes,
[02:50.270]Does it almost feel like
[02:52.710]Nothing changed at all?
[02:55.010]And if you close your eyes,
[02:57.950]Does it almost feel like
[03:00.110]You've been here before?
[03:03.710]How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[03:07.720]How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[03:10.730]
[03:11.280]If you close your eyes, does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
