Bastille - pompeii lyrics

rate me

Eh eh oh eh oh x4 I was left in 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 rumble over the hills

Bringing darkness from above

But if you close your eyes

Does it almost feel like

Nothing changed at all?k

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 is the dust settled around us

And the walls keep tumbling down

In the city that we lost

Great clouds rumble 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?

(got a big thing oh yeah)

Oh where do we begin?

The rumble or our sins?

Oh where do we begin?

The rumble or our sins?

And the walls kept tumbling down

In the city that we love

Great clouds rumble 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?

And if you close your eyes

Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
