Oblivion
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I flew beyond the Sun before it was time
Burning all the gold that held me inside my shell
Waiting for you to pull me back in
I almost had the world in my sight
Lost love, bright eyes fading
Faster than stars falling
How can I tell you that I've failed
Tell you I failed
Falling from grace cause I've been away too long
Leaving you behind with my lonesome song
Now I'm lost in oblivion
I tried to burrow a hole into the ground
Breaking all the fingers and the nails from my hand
The eyes of a child see no wrong
Ignorant bliss impending doom
Lost love, bright eyes fading
Faster than stars falling
How can I tell you that I've failed
Tell you I failed
Falling from grace cause I've been away too long
Leaving you behind with my lonesome song
Now I'm lost
Falling from grace cause I've been away too long
Leaving you behind with my lonesome song
Now I'm lost in oblivion
Falling from grace cause I've been away too long
Leaving you behind with my lonesome song
Now I'm lost
Falling from grace cause I've been away too long
Leaving you behind with my lonesome song
Now I'm lost in oblivion
In oblivion
In oblivion
