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.
Time doesn’t erase the demons you don’t see
Still dancin’ in your dreams
Dragging up all the ways
Temptations overgrown
Looks like we’re all alone
Truth is karma don’t lie
So let me show you why
Can’t keep me here in the dark
I’ll set you off like a spark
Into oblivion
Into oblivion
Can’t shake me down to the bone
I’ll turn you back into stone
Into oblivion
Rise, wrath of the rage
Those spineless spirits bleed
Behold the alchemy
Crawling out of my skin
Shed every trace of you
Just one last thing to prove
Truth is karma don’t lie
So let me show you why
Can’t keep me here in the dark
I’ll set you off like a spark
Into oblivion
Into oblivion
Can’t shake me down to the bone
I’ll turn you back into stone
Into oblivion
Into oblivion
Can’t keep me here in the dark
I’ll set you off like a spark
Into oblivion
Aye-oh
Aye-oh
Aye-i
So let me show you why
Can’t keep me here in the dark
I’ll set you off like a spark
Into oblivion
Into oblivion
Can’t shake me down to the bone
I’ll turn you back into stone
Into oblivion
Into oblivion
Can’t keep me here in the dark
I’ll set you off like a spark
Into oblivion
Into oblivion
Can’t shake me down to the bone
I’ll turn you back into stone
Into oblivion
