Good Grief
Bastille Lyrics
"So, what would you little maniacs like to do first?"
Watching through my fingers, watching through my fingers
Shut my eyes and count to ten
It goes in one ear out the other, one ear out the other
Burning bright right till the end
Now you'll be missing from the photographs, missing from the photographs
Watching through my fingers, watching through my fingers
In my thoughts you're far away
Crystallizing clear as day
Oh, I can picture you so easily, picture you so easily
What's gonna be left of the world if you're not in it?
What's gonna be left of the world, oh
Every minute and every hour
I miss you, I miss you, I miss you more
Every stumble and each misfire
I miss you, I miss you, I miss you more
Watching through my fingers, watching through my fingers
Caught off guard by your favourite song
I'll be dancing at a funeral, dancing at a funeral
Sleeping in the clothes you love
It's such a shame we had to see them burn, shame we had to see them burn
What's gonna be left of the world if you're not in it?
What's gonna be left of the world, oh
Every minute and every hour
I miss you, I miss you, I miss you more
Every stumble and each misfire
I miss you, I miss you, I miss you more
"If you want to be a party animal, you have to learn to live in the jungle
Now stop worrying and go get dressed"
You might have to excuse me
I've lost control of all my senses
And you might have to excuse me
I've lost control of all my words
So get drunk, call me a fool
Put me in my place, put me in my place
Pick me up, up off the floor
Put me in my place, put me in my place
Every minute and every hour
I miss you, I miss you, I miss you more
Every stumble and each misfire
I miss you, I miss you, I miss you more
Watching through my fingers, watching through my fingers
'Cause every minute and every hour
I miss you, I miss you, I miss you more

Bastille's song "Oblivion" featured in the soundtrack of the television show The Vampire Diaries in the Season 4 Episode 9 titled "O Come, All Ye Faithful".

“So, what would you little maniacs like to do first?”
[Refrain]
Watching through my fingers
Watching through my fingers
[Verse 1]
Shut my eyes and count to ten
It goes in one ear out the other, oh One ear out the other, oh Burning bright right 'til the end
Now you’ll be missing from the photographs Missing from the photographs
[Refrain]
Watching through my fingers
Watching through my fingers
[Verse 2]
In my thoughts you’re far away And you are whistling a melody Whistling a melody Crystallizing clear as day Oh I can picture you so easily Picture you so easily
[Pre-Chorus]
What’s gonna be left of the world if you’re not in it? What’s gonna be left of the world? Oh
[Chorus]
Every minute and every hour I miss you, I miss you, I miss you more Every stumble and each misfire I miss you, I miss you, I miss you more
[Refrain]
Watching through my fingers
Watching through my fingers
[Verse 3]
Caught off guard by your favourite song Oh I’ll be dancing at a funeral Dancing at a funeral
Sleeping in the clothes you love It’s such a shame we had to see them burn Shame we had to see them burn
[Pre-Chorus]
What’s gonna be left of the world if you’re not in it? What’s gonna be left of the world, oh
[Chorus]
Every minute and every hour I miss you, I miss you, I miss you more Every stumble and each misfire I miss you, I miss you, I miss you more
[Interlude]
If you want to be a party animal, you have to learn to live in the jungle Now stop worrying and go get dressed
[Bridge]
You might have to excuse me I’ve lost control of all my senses And you might have to excuse me I’ve lost control of all my words
So get drunk, call me a fool
Put me in my place, put me in my place Pick me up, up off the floor Put me in my place, put me in my place
[Chorus]
Every minute and every hour I miss you, I miss you, I miss you more Every stumble and each misfire I miss you, I miss you, I miss you more
[Refrain]
Watching through my fingers
Watching through my fingers
[Outro]
Cause every minute and every hour
I miss you, I miss you, I miss you more

To all the people who lost their love ones in here
You are strong..

You must be happy that their finally happy in heaven.. :)
Please get through the past do not think of suicide think of the future
