Days of Oblivion Songtext
von Metric

All the times that now and then appear as only dreams
All the stuff from way back when that′s coming up don't self-destruct
You don′t have to call for the wrecking ball
Or burn the world to ashes
All you have to do is ask me to
I'll stop you where the descending stares drop

I've unlocked all the doors
And I′ve lost all the keys
And I live in a mansion made up of memories
Bob said, "Don′t look back"
John said, "I don't believe"
Jerry said, "There are days between days"


Days of oblivion
Days of oblivion
It turns out these were the days
It turns out these were the days
Days of oblivion
Days of oblivion
It turns out these were the days
The ashes of disaster drift to you
All your dreams of change are coming true

I know I need you
I know I need you
Don′t ever leave me
I'll never leave you behind
I know you need me
The way I need you
I′ll never leave you
Don't ever leave me behind

I know I need you
You know I need you
Don′t ever leave me
I'd never leave you behind
The way you need me
The way I need you
I'd never leave you
I′ll never leave you behind
No, no, no


I′ve unlocked all the doors
And I'll never find the keys
And I live in a mansion now, made up of memories
Bob said, "Don′t look back"
John said, "I don't believe"
Jerry said, "There are days between days"

Days of oblivion
Days of oblivion
It turns out these were the days
It turns out these were the days
Days of oblivion
Days of oblivion
It turns out these were the days
The ashes of disaster drift to you
At last, you really see me

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

All the times that now and then appear as only dreams
All the stuff from way back when that′s coming up don't self-destruct
You don′t have to call for the wrecking ball
Or burn the world to ashes
All you have to do is ask me to
I'll stop you where the descending stares drop

All the things that now and then appear as only dreams
All the stuff from way back when that's coming up don′t self-destruct
You don′t have to call for the wrecking ball
Or burn the world to ashes
All you have to do is ask me to
I'll stop you where the descending stares drop
