Let me glide upon this autumn night.
The air is fresh, the body broken.
Under the weight
I elevate,
But it's killing me.
Why do I keep looking
When there's very little else to see?
Livin' in
Oblivion,
'Cause I don't know my way to Emerald City.
It was always you who led me.
No heels to click,
Nor yellow brick,
The long blind road has swallowed and embraced me.
You're gone but I ain't ready.
For an hour I could breathe again.
In nightless sleep I often wander.
But when I wake
I suffocate,
'Cause I know what's gone-
Everything I thought I'd need
And everything I've ever known.
Livin' in
Oblivion,
'Cause I don't know my way to Emerald City.
It was always you who led me.
No heels to click,
Nor yellow brick,
The long blind road has swallowed and embraced me.
You're gone but I ain't ready.
Did you ever know how wise you were?
The wisest never do.
And though our time was spread too thinly,
All that's good in me
Began in you.
Livin' in
Oblivion,
'Cause I don't know my way to Emerald City.
It was always you who led me.
No heels to click,
Nor yellow brick,
The long blind road has swallowed and embraced me.
You're gone but I ain't ready.
Livin' in
Oblivion,
'Cause I don't know my way to Emerald City.
It was always you who led me.
No heels to click,
Nor yellow brick,
The long blind road has swallowed and embraced me.
You're gone but I ain't ready
You're gone but I ain't ready.
No, no, no.
You're gone, you're gone
