Oblivion
M83 ft Susanne Sundfør Lyrics

Since, I was young, I knew I'd find you
I always believed that I would eventually find you, even from a young age.

But our love, was a song, sung by a dying swan
Despite our love being beautiful, it was also fragile like a dying swan's song.

And in the night, you hear me calling
During the night, I call out to you and hope that you hear me.

You hear me calling
I hope that my calls reach you and you hear me.

And in your dreams, you see me falling, falling
When you dream, you see me falling and feel like you cannot save me.

Breathe in the light
Take in the positive energy and light around you.

I'll stay here in the shadow, oh
I'll stay in the background while you focus on the light.

Waiting for a sign, as the tide grows
As time passes, I wait for a sign or indication of what to do next.

Higher and higher and higher
The tension and intensity continues to increase.

And when the nights are long
During long nights, memories of your goodbye come flooding back.

All those stars recall, your goodbye, your goodbye
The stars remind me of the sadness and pain of your goodbye.

And in the night, you'll hear me calling
During the night, I continue to call out to you.

You'll hear me calling
I hope that you'll hear me, even in the dark of night.

And in your dreams, you'll see us falling, falling
In your dreams, you'll see us falling, unable to break free from the cycle of hurt and loss.

Breathe in the light and say goodbye
Take in the light and let go of the past by saying goodbye.

Breathe in the light and say goodbye
Repeat the process of taking in the light and letting go of the past, as a way of self-healing.
