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 loved.
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 loved.
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 loved.
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?

But if you close your eyes, does it almost feel like
Nothing changed at all?
