Lyrics

[00:12.16] I was left to my own devices
[00:20.38] Many days fell away with nothing to show
[00:28.23] And the walls kept tumbling down in the city that we love
[00:36.25] Great clouds roll over the hills bringing darkness from above
[00:44.66] But if you close your eyes,
[00:48.49] Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
[00:53.71] And if you close your eyes,
[00:56.50] Does it almost feel like you've been here before?
[01:02.99] How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[01:07.22] How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[01:11.61] We were caught up and lost in all of our vices
[01:19.85] In your pose as the dust settles around us
[01:27.72] And the walls kept tumbling down in the city that we love
[01:35.79] Great clouds roll over the hills bringing darkness from above
[01:44.42] But if you close your eyes,
[01:47.76] Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
[01:53.19] And if you close your eyes,
[01:56.05] Does it almost feel like you've been here before?
[02:02.53] How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[02:06.32] How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[02:10.92]
[02:18.93] Where do we begin?
[02:22.94] The rubble or our sins?
[02:27.80] Where do we begin?
[02:31.19] The rubble or our sins?
[02:34.75] And the walls kept tumbling down in the city that we love
[02:43.42] Great clouds roll over the hills bringing darkness from above
[02:52.13] But if you close your eyes,
[02:55.22] Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
[03:00.74] And if you close your eyes,
[03:03.89] Does it almost feel like you've been here before?
[03:10.19] How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[03:14.38] How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[03:18.33]
