Anthem Lights - Pompeii

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?
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
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? (x2)
Oh where do we begin?
The rubble or our sins?
Oh oh where do we begin?
The rubble or our sins?
Oh where do we begin?
In the rubble or our sins?
Oh where do we begin?
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? (x2)
