Bastille - Pompeii (Remix) lyrics

[Verse 1: Jimmy Skoog] Can you hear me, I'm calling you It's getting hard to see the darkness through Summer just left us with autumn blues And I'm having a hard time to follow through But when they Photoshop and auto tune Emotions off, take out all the truth We go for that dream and chase that feeling (cause) When we were kids that was all we knew (HEY!) Always felt this adrenaline rush In my soul that's lead me to kicking up dust Doctor prescribing medicine that He said would keep me from giving a f** (w'the f**?) Just keep on living it up When they push you down, just turn everything up What, am I supposed to be giving this up? All the things that made me, you're kidding me, huh? [Chorus: Bastille] 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 going to be an optimist about this? How am I going to be an optimist about this? [Verse 2: Jimmy Skoog] We don't care what they say When they say we're failures Cause it is up us now And only we can save us Can't shake us, sh-shake us Can't hold us down or contain us We just keep marching Can't knock us down, they won't break us, SO This is it boys, this is war What the hell are we waiting for? Misunderstood and misinformed We've been living our lives but can't take no more We will fight till they make us kings And make sure when they hear our names, they cringe Tear that roof till its caving in And we won't look back we're just taking wing [Chorus] [Bridge](2x) Oh, where do we begin? The rubble or our sins? [Pre-Chorus] And the walls kept tumbling down in the city that we love Great clouds all over the hills Bringing darkness from above [Chorus]
