Oblivion

Oblivion it is when you're lost in thought Oblivion it is when you drop it all Oblivion it is when you never dost Oblivion it is when you give it all up and fall Oblivion, oblivion Oblivion, oblivion Oblivion is your loss in limbo Oblivion is your loss of gist Oblivion is your loss and bungle Oblivion is your loss of feeze Oblivion is to feign and lost a turn Oblivion is to know and never speak Oblivion is to take and never return Oblivion is to keep away and never be meek Oblivion, to never forgive, never forget Oblivion, to scatter your conscious, never allineate Oblivion, to never obstinate, never bet Oblivion, to never be zany, never appreciate Oblivion, to be delusional and unaware Oblivion, to remember inessential details Oblivion, to be naive at all dares Oblivion, to remember the routes but not the trails Oblivion, efface these joyful faces I've loved Oblivion, efface these oppressive things I know Oblivion, efface these memories I've had Oblivion, efface all that I love dearest for so Oblivion? What am I doing here? Oblivion? What am I looking for? Oblivion? What is my purpose, is it near? Oblivion? What is this, my eyes are watery sore. Oblivion, was I a good person? Oblivion, was I a good child? Oblivion, was I an angel and never committed treason? Oblivion, was I kind and mild? Oblivion, once, I dreamed of a family Oblivion, once, I dreamed of great friends Oblivion, once, I dreamed of a true love's love happily Oblivion, once, I dreamed of my honest treads Oblivion, there was a child who made too many mistakes Oblivion, there was this time that she stood still Oblivion, there was a chance that she could take And she spelt it out, and she crumbled away with her lost will The chance was "Oblivion", and this is what she spelt then "Oblivion is to efface what was once there..."
