Lyrics
0:04I was left to my own devices
0:12Many days fell away and nothing to show
0:19And the walls kept tumbling down
0:22In the city that we love
0:27Great clouds roll over the hills
0:29Bringing darkness from above
0:35But if you close your eyes
0:38Does it almost feel like
0:40Nothing changed at all
0:42And if you close your eyes
0:45Does it almost feel like
0:48You've been here before
0:51How am I gonna be an optimist about this
0:55How am I gonna be an optimist about this
0:59We were caught up and lost in all of our voices
1:06In your pose as the dust settled around us
1:13And the walls kept tumbling down
1:16In the city that we love
1:21Great clouds roll over there hills
1:24Bringing darkness from above
1:29But if you close your eyes
1:32Does it almost feel like
1:35Nothing changed at all
1:37And if you close your eyes
1:40Does it almost feel like
1:42You've been here before
1:46How am I gonna be an optimist about this
1:49How am I gonna be an optimist about this
1:54Oh where do we begin
1:58The rubble or our sins
2:01Oh oh where do we begin
2:05The rubble or our sins
2:11And the walls kept tumbling down
2:14In the city that we love
2:18Great clouds roll over the hills
2:21Bringing darkness from above
2:26Close your eyes
2:28Does it almost feel like
2:30Nothing changed at all
2:32And if you close your eyes
2:35Does it almost feel like
2:38You've been here before
2:41How am I gonna be an optimist about this
2:45How am I gonna be an optimist about this
2:48If you close your eyes
2:50Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all
I was left to my own devices Many days fell away and 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 voices In your pose as the dust settled around us And the walls kept tumbling down In the city that we love Great clouds roll over there 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 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 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 If you close your eyes Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all
