Lyrics: Yes
 
Eheu eh-o eheu eh-o [x8]
 
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 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 vices
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 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?
 
Eheu eh-o eheu eh-o [x4]
 
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 (oh, where do we begin?)
In the city that we love (the rubble or our sins?)
Great clouds roll over the hills (oh, where do we begin?)
Bringing darkness from above (the rubble or our sins?)
 
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?
 
If you close your eyes, does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
 
Eheu eh-o eheu eh-o [x8]
