Pompeii / Slow Down (Colour Fool Remix)
I was left to my own devices
Many days fell away with nothing to show
But I've been stealing time
Thinking if I tried
Everything would turn out right
We're caught up in the climb
Love was far behind
Someone's gotta stop this madness
(But if you close your eyes)
When all this seems like it's okay
And all we feel is day to day, we're on replay
And all these dreams where life's made
Are leaving out the people that we love
(How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?)
Feel it when the sun comes
Feel it when your heart turns
Everybody needs more time
To step into the sunshine
See it with your own eyes
I just want to feel alive
And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city that we love
Grey clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above
Oh, where do we begin?
The rubble or our sins?
Oh, oh, where do we begin?
The rubble or our sins?
And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city that we love
Grey clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above
When all this seems like it's okay
And all we feel is day to day, we're on replay
And all these dreams where life's made
Are leaving out the people that we love
So slow down
We need to slow down
(How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?)
Many days fell away with nothing to show
But I've been stealing time
Thinking if I tried
Everything would turn out right
We're caught up in the climb
Love was far behind
Someone's gotta stop this madness
(But if you close your eyes)
When all this seems like it's okay
And all we feel is day to day, we're on replay
And all these dreams where life's made
Are leaving out the people that we love
(How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?)
Feel it when the sun comes
Feel it when your heart turns
Everybody needs more time
To step into the sunshine
See it with your own eyes
I just want to feel alive
And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city that we love
Grey clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above
Oh, where do we begin?
The rubble or our sins?
Oh, oh, where do we begin?
The rubble or our sins?
And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city that we love
Grey clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above
When all this seems like it's okay
And all we feel is day to day, we're on replay
And all these dreams where life's made
Are leaving out the people that we love
So slow down
We need to slow down
(How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?)
