Oblivion Songtext
von Masayoshi Soken

Staring at death, I take a breath, there′s nothing left
Now close my eyes, for one last time, and say goodbye
Lying naked while the snow falls all around me
Drifting closer to the edge but she won't have me

Wake up in sweat, full of regret, try to forget
These memories, lurking beneath, lost in a dream

Unchosen paths, a broken past, forespoken wrath
The pain won′t cease, I'll find no peace, no sweet release
Fragile creatures, we are taught to fear the Reaper
Ever running, we are dead before we meet her

These voices telling me: "Let it go" (let it all go)
I try and try but I can't say no (try and say no)
This endless nightmare has just begun (nowhere to run)
My heart is dragging me down into oblivion

The endless lies, I′ve cast aside, locked them in ice
Steeled is my soul, my blood grown cold, I′ve gained control
Fearless creatures, we all learn to fight the Reaper
Can't defeat her, so instead I′ll have to be her


These voices screaming to let it go (never let go)
This time I'm screaming back no, no, no (go on say no)
My mind′s made up, yeah, my fear is gone (where have you gone?)
Open my eyes now, here I come, oblivion

For the last time (I won't say goodbye)
For the last time (I won′t say goodbye)
For the last time (I won't say goodbye)
For the last time

Staring at death, I take a breath, there's nothing left
Now close my eyes, for one last time, and say goodbye
Lying naked while the snow falls all around me
Drifting closer to the edge but she won′t have me

Wake up in sweat, full of regret, try to forget
These memories, lurking beneath, lost in a dream

Unchosen paths, a broken past, forespoken wrath
The pain won′t cease, I'll find no peace, no sweet release
Fragile creatures, we are taught to fear the Reaper
Ever running, we are dead before we meet her

These voices telling me: "Let it go" (let it all go)
I try and try but I can′t say no (try and say no)
This endless nightmare has just begun (nowhere to run)
My heart is dragging me down into oblivion


The endless lies, I've cast aside, locked them in ice
Steeled is my soul, my blood grown cold, I′ve gained control
Fearless creatures, we all learn to fight the Reaper
Can't defeat her, so instead I′ll have to be her

These voices screaming to let it go (never let go)
This time I'm screaming back no, no, no (go on say no)
My mind's made up, yeah, my fear is gone (where have you gone?)
Open my eyes now, here I come, oblivion

For the last time (I won′t say goodbye)
For the last time (I won′t say goodbye)
For the last time (I won't say goodbye)
For the last time
