Oblivion lyrics

[I hear you...but I'm not afraid of you]

[I'm not afraid of you]

Father, where's my gun?

Now that the war has begun

Oh let me go it alone

I need no one

I said I need no one

But oh God now here it comes and it's too dark to aim this gun

Clicking now faster, faster, faster

once again I'm on the run

And I hear you say,

"Oh my stubborn son, don't you just say you need no one?

But don't you see danger, danger, danger, headed to oblivion?"

Follow the hunt, far as I could

Through a dozen weathers

Petrified wood

And I took one shot, in the dark

And fired the bullet, silver to heart

And oh God now here it comes and it's too dark to aim this gun

Now faster, faster, faster

Once again I'm on the run

And I hear you say,

"Oh my stubborn son, I know that you said you need no one

But don't you see danger, danger, danger, headed to oblivion?"

Oblivion, oblivion, oblivion, oblivion, oblivion, oblivion...

[Wait a second...have you come so far, for it to end like this?]

no

[This is the challenge...I dare you, to take a hold of that darkness from deep down within you]

It's dark

[Get back up, what are you so afraid of?]

Wait

[Get back up!]

Okay

Show your face, face to me

Show you face, face to me

Be you my friend...

Or enemy?

Show your face

Face to me

I do not fear oblivion

I do not fear oblivion

Said I do not fear oblivion

Oblivion, oblivion, oblivion...

Father, where is my gun?

I need no one

And I need no one

So let me go now.
