[00:29.000]I was left to my own devices.
[00:37.500]Many days fell away with nothing to show.
[00:39.800]And the walls kept tumbling down in the city that we love.
[00:51.500]Great clouds roll over the hills bringing darkness from above.
[00:59.000]And the walls kept tumbling down kept tumbling down kept tumbling down...
[01:06.000]Down down down down down...
[01:12.500]But if you close your eyes.
[01:15.500]Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
[01:20.100]And if you close your eyes.
[01:23.000]Does it almost feel like you've been here before?
[01:29.000]How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[01:32.500]How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[01:36.500]How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[01:40.500]How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[01:51.800]We were caught up and lost in all of our vices.
[02:00.000]In your pose as the dust settled around us.
[02:06.000]And the walls kept tumbling down in the city that we love.
[02:14.000]Gray clouds roll over the hills bringing darkness from above.
[02:21.000]Darkness above darkness above darkness above...
[02:31.000]above above above...
[02:36.200]But if you close your eyes,
[02:38.500]Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
[02:43.500]And if you close your eyes,
[02:46.000]Does it almost feel like you've been here before?
[02:52.500]How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[02:56.500]How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[02:59.500]How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[03:03.500]How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[03:23.500]Eh-eh-oh eh-eh-oh eh-eh-oh eh-eh-oh...
[03:37.500]Oh where do we begin?The rubble or our sins?
[03:44.500]Oh oh where do we begin?The rubble or our sins?
[03:52.500]And the walls kept tumbling down (oh where do we begin?)in the city that we love. (the rubble or our sins?)
[04:00.000]Gray clouds roll over the hills (oh where do we begin?)bringing darkness from above. (the rubble or our sins?)
[04:09.000]Begin begin begin begin...
[04:21.500]But if you close your eyes.
[04:24.500]Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
[04:28.500]And if you close your eyes,
[04:31.500]Does it almost feel like you've been here before?
[04:37.500]How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[04:40.500]How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[04:44.500]How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[04:49.500]How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
