Cover art for Oblivion lyrics by Patrick Wolf

(I hear you...but I’m not afraid of you) Father, where’s my gun? Now that the war has begun Let me go it alone I need no one Said I need no one

But O 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’

Followed the hunt, far as I could Through dozen weathers Petrified wood And I took one shot, in the dark Fired a bullet, silver to heart

But O 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...

(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 within you! Get back up, what are you so afraid of?) [Okay...]

Show your face, face to me Show you face, face to me Be you my friend... Or enemy? Show your face Face to me

And do not fear oblivion Say I do not fear oblivion Oblivion... Father, where’s my gun? I need no one I need no one... Said I need no one.
