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
Grey clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above

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

But if you close your eyes

But if you close your eyes
But if you close your eyes
But if you close your eyes
But if you close your eyes

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 love
Grey 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
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
Close your eyes

But if you close your eyes

But if you close your eyes
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
Close your eyes

But if you close your eyes

But if you close your eyes
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
