Oblivion Lyrics


I hear you, but I'm not afraid of you
I'm not afraid of you
Father, where is 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 said you need no one
But don't you see danger, danger, danger's
Headed to oblivion?
Followed the hunt far as I could
Through 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?
This is the challenge
I dare you to take a hold of that darkness from deep down in you
Get back up, what are you so afraid of?
Show your face, face to me
Show your 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, I need no one
Said I need no one

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Earl Rudolph "Bud" Powell (September 27, 1924 – July 31, 1966) was one of the most influential pianists in the history of jazz. Along with Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie he was instrumental in the development of bebop, and his virtuosity as a pianist led many to call him "the Charlie Parker of the piano". Powell was perhaps the first pianist to vocalize on the piano, meaning that he transfered his vocalized improvisations directly through his hands to the instrument. This gave his music a deep connection to time, which is an artifact of the human voice.
