Pompeii MMXXIII Lyrics

[00:28.70] I was left to my own devices
[00:38.46] Many days fell away with nothing to show
[00:49.40]
[00:57.02] And the walls kept tumbling down in the city that we love
[01:06.57] Grey clouds roll over the hills, bringing darkness from above
[01:14.82]
[01:17.04] But if you close your eyes
[01:20.69] Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
[01:26.72] And if you close your eyes
[01:30.34] Does it almost feel like you've been here before?
[01:37.73] How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[01:42.91] How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[01:47.66] Eh, eheu, eheu
[01:50.16] Eh, eheu, eheu
[01:52.45] Eh, eheu, eheu
[01:55.11] Eh, eheu, eheu
[01:57.37] Eh, eheu, eheu
[01:59.82] Eh, eheu, eheu
[02:02.10] Eh, eheu, eheu
[02:04.53] Eh, eheu, eheu
[02:07.02] We were caught up and lost in all of our vices
[02:16.77] In your pose, as the dust settled around us
[02:25.80] And the walls kept tumbling down in the city that we love
[02:35.30] Grey clouds roll over the hills, bringing darkness from above
[02:45.82] But if you close your eyes
[02:49.42] Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
[02:55.62] And if you close your eyes
[02:59.00] Does it almost feel like you've been here before?
[03:06.59] How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[03:11.77] How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[03:15.17] If you close your eyes
[03:16.54] Eh, eheu, eheu
[03:18.91] Eh, eheu, eheu (oh-oh-oh)
[03:21.38] Eh, eheu, eheu (oh-oh)
[03:23.81] Eh, eheu, eheu
[03:26.13] Oh, where do we begin?
[03:30.55] The rubble or our sins?
[03:35.24] Oh-oh, oh, where do we begin?
[03:40.22] The rubble or our sins?
[03:45.05] And the walls kept tumbling down in the city that we love
[03:54.68] Grey clouds roll over the hills, bringing darkness from above
[04:04.07]
[04:07.63] But if you close your eyes
[04:11.27] Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
[04:17.15] And if you close your eyes
[04:20.70] Does it almost feel like you've been here before?
[04:27.93] Oh, how am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[04:33.46] How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[04:36.77] If you close your eyes
[04:42.25] Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
[04:50.53]
[05:02.37] Hey!
[05:06.70] How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[05:16.28] How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[05:23.24] Oh-oh, oh
[05:25.00]
