Oblivious
(verse 1)
(pain piercing like icy rain
rage burns like a candle starting a house fire
caught in the curtains gone is my silhouette
what remains are ashes of my regret, ahh)
 
ahh, ahh, ahh
ahh, ahh, ahh
ahh, ahh, ahh
(my deep sorrow)
 
in the amphitheater of my dark clouded mind
is an empty monochrome carnival
imaginary figures who are supposed to be my only friends
still point at me on stage with dirty fingers
 
(chorus)
oblivious, my pain means nothing to the real world
their unending hurt is my twisted sustenance
their judging stares keep me at a cornered distance
together, let’s end it all
destruction befalls
ahh, ahh, ahh
ahh, ahh, ahh
(end chorus)
 
(verse 2)
unconditional love is a happy child’s fairytale
while I stay unnoticed by the gothic archways
being shunned is what I’m used to so well
the black-feathered angel, loneliness, keeps me company
 
(chorus)
oblivious, I want to be on the inside looking out
see their movements field with anxiety and self-doubt
if they had hearts of darkness
then we could all bare witness
as the light becomes shadow
(end chorus)
 
(bridge)
someday, it’ll all be gone
finally then, my will has won
fire up burns, wince at ice
wounds cut deep, you can’t sleep
through any season
because of jagged reasons
nothing heals feelings like these
 
ahh, ahh, ahh
ahh, ahh, ahh
 
(pain piercing like icy rain
rage burns like a candle starting a house fire
caught in the curtains gone is my silhouette
what remains are ashes of my regret, ahh)
 
(chorus)
oblivious, my pain means nothing to the real world
their unending hurt is my twisted sustenance
their judging stares keep me at a cornered distance
together, let’s end it all
destruction befalls
oblivious, I want to be on the inside looking out
see their movements field with anxiety and self-doubt
if they had hearts of darkness
then we could all bare witness
as the light becomes shadow
ahh, ahh, ahh
ahh, ahh, ahh
(end chorus)
