Oblivion

Oblivion
When you fall asleep with your head upon my shoulder.
When you're in my arms but you've gone somewhere deeper.
Are you going to age with grace?
Are you going to age without mistakes?
Are you going to age with grace,
Or only to wake and hide your face?

When oblivion is calling out your name,
You always take it further than I ever can.
When you play it hard, and I try to follow you there.
It's not about control but I turn back when I see where you go.
Are you going to age with grace?
Are you going to leave a path to trace?
When oblivion is calling out your name,
You always take it further than I ever can.
When oh oblivion is calling out your name,
You always take it further than I ever can.
Esta canción de Bastille, titulada 'Oblivion', nos sumerge en una atmósfera de intimidad y reflexión. Se inicia con la imagen reconfortante de dormir con la cabeza apoyada en el hombro de alguien, pero también nos habla de la sensación de que esa persona se aleja en un nivel más profundo....
