It Remembers

I brought a rumor when I came down from the mountain
That spread quicker than the fire in your eyes
Heaven won’t let me in, I took my medicine
Salt water couldn’t quench my thirst at the fountain
Burn slow, there’s no rush
You’re right, always right
I want oblivion all the time
I want oblivion all the time
Mindless son of the eternal shine
Mindless son of the eternal shine
It snuck up like a desert wind
I got a feeling I won’t feel again
When faith abandons me
I hope it does it honestly
I still howl like an animal in the darkness
And I’m reminded by the blood on my clothes
I can’t stand what I’ve become
I’m shivering to spite the sun
We come together and we’re overwhelmed by the loneliness
I want oblivion all the time
I want oblivion all the time
I want oblivion all the time
I want oblivion
Burn slow, there’s no rush
You’re right, always right
I thought I settled my debts that night on the ride home
But I’ve still got hell to pay
