Lyrics

[00:09.74] Eh-eh-o eh-o I was left to my own devices
[00:22.35] Many days fell away with nothing to show
[00:29.72] And the walls kept tumbling down
[00:32.86] In the city that we love
[00:37.49] Great clouds roll over the hills
[00:40.25] Bringing darkness from above
[00:45.63] But if you close your eyes,
[00:48.48] Does it almost feel like
[00:50.42] Nothing changed at all?
[00:52.84] And if you close your eyes,
[00:55.45] Does it almost feel like
[00:58.41] You've been here before?
[01:00.91] How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[01:04.08] How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[01:08.46] We were caught up and lost in all of our vices
[01:16.14] In your pose as the dust settled around us
[01:23.24] And the walls kept tumbling down
[01:30.71] In the city that we love
[01:32.00] Great clouds roll over the hills
[01:34.67] Bringing darkness from above
[01:39.90] But if you close your eyes,
[01:42.88] Does it almost feel like
[01:45.04] Nothing changed at all?
[01:47.52] And if you close your eyes,
[01:50.32] Does it almost feel like
[01:52.48] You've been here before?
[01:56.16] How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[02:00.00] How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[02:04.18] Eh-eh-o eh-o Oh where do we begin?
[02:13.90] The rubble or our sins?
[02:18.72] Oh oh where do we begin?
[02:21.93] The rubble or our sins?
[02:25.76] And the walls kept tumbling down (oh where do we begin?)
[02:30.15] In the city that we love (the rubble or our sins?)
[02:33.30] Great clouds roll over the hills (oh where do we begin?)
[02:35.89] Bringing darkness from above (the rubble or our sins?)
[02:41.94] But if you close your eyes,
[02:44.68] Does it almost feel like
[02:47.74] Nothing changed at all?
[02:49.22] And if you close your eyes,
[02:51.77] Does it almost feel like
[02:54.69] You've been here before?
[02:57.67] How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[03:01.01] How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[03:04.66] If you close your eyes, does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
[03:12.72] Eh-eh-o eh-o
