POMPEII by Bastille, Hans Zimmer

VIDEO LYRICS

00:00
00:30 I was left to my own devices
00:39 Many days fell away with nothing to show
00:58 And the walls kept tumbling down in the city that we love
01:07 Grey clouds roll over the hills bringing darkness from above
01:18 But if you close your eyes
01:22 Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
01:28 And if you close your eyes
01:31 Does it almost feel like you've been here before?
01:39 How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
01:44 How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
01:49 Eheu
02:08 We were caught up and lost in all of our vices
02:17 In your pose as the dust settled around us
02:26 And the walls kept tumbling down in the city that we love
02:36 Grey clouds roll over the hills bringing darkness from above
02:47 But if you close your eyes
02:50 Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
02:57 And if you close your eyes
03:00 Does it almost feel like you've been here before?
03:08 How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
03:13 How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
03:18 Eheu
03:28 Oh, where do we begin? The rubble or our sins?
03:36 Oh, oh, where do we begin? The rubble or our sins?

03:45 And the walls kept tumbling down in the city that we love
03:56 Grey clouds roll over the hills bringing darkness from above

04:08 But if you close your eyes
04:12 Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
04:21 But if you close your eyes
04:24 Does it almost feel like you've been here before?
04:29 How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
04:34 How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
04:40 If you close your eyes
Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?

05:09 How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
05:15 How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
