Oblivious
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.
New face fun smile two feet gone wild
Racing young heart close gate false start
When it came for you I could barely breathe
Punched a hole right through you were gone
Forever forever is a long long time
I never thought it would hurt like this
I'd rather be I'd rather be oblivious
Black rain fall hard caught me off guard
Shooting bright star, shine on where you are
When they sang for you I could barely feel
Numbing down the fact I'm alone
Forever forever is a long long time
I never thought it would hurt like this
I'd rather be I'd rather be oblivious
Angel get wings life starts hope springs
Forever forever is a long long time
Forever we'll be at rest until that day
I'd rather be oblivious
