Hello Oblivion

Once you give up the ghost
The leech will drop from the host and die
And in a flood of relief
You will soak your feet and sigh
But will you look back and laugh
When you study that you walked
When you were searching for fame
As a subject to pain and loss
Or will you cry
Hello oblivion
Into you I am slipping
Day to day and end to end
Do you feel yourself living?
Another dance with death
Another stolen breath of air
Trapped beneath their nets
With your feet set in the snare
They got you up on trial
With that crooked smile on your face
And now you’re playing dumb
Like you don’t know what to say
And you cry
Hello oblivion
Into you I am slipping
Day to day and end to end
Do you feel yourself living?
Do you now
Do you feel yourself living?
