Pompeii (City Sessions / Amazon Music Live)

[Verse 1]

I was left to my own devices

Many days fell away with nothing to show

[Pre-Chorus]

And the walls kept tumbling down in the city that we love

Grey clouds roll over the hills, bringing darkness from above

[Chorus]

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?

[Verse 2]

We were caught up and lost in all of our vices

In your pose as the dust settled around us

[Pre-Chorus]

And the walls kept tumbling down in thе city that we love

Grey clouds roll ovеr the hills, bringing darkness from above

[Chorus]

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, eyes

[Bridge]

Oh, where do we begin, the rubble or our sins?

Oh, where do we begin, the rubble or our sins?

And the walls kept tumbling down in the city that we love (Oh, where do we begin, the rubble or our sins?)

Grey clouds roll over the hills bringing darkness from above (Oh, where do we begin, the rubble or our sins?)

[Chorus]

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?

Oh, how am I going to be an optimist about this?

How am I going to be an optimist about this?

If you close your eyes, eyes

[Outro]

How am I going to be an optimist about this?

How am I going to be an optimist about this?

How am I going to be an optimist about this?

Thank you so much
