Oblivion Beckons

I walk along with my blinders on so I don't have to see
And all thinking beyond binary - it can atrophy
The TV pundit accepts me so I never have to feel alone
He tells me I'm safe but there's an ominous undertone

I pretend to try
Oblivion beckons
Forego asking why
Oblivion beckons
Join in as the mob salutes another lie
Oblivion beckons

Looking out at the blackened stumps of yet another fire
We keep hoping that we'll be rescued just below the wire
They keep saying the cost of change we simply can't afford
But there's only one boat and it's time they were tossed overboard

We pretend to try
Oblivion beckons
Forego asking why
Oblivion beckons
Join in as the mob salutes another lie
Oblivion beckons

I could forget that I had ever thought at all

We pretend to try
Oblivion beckons
Forego asking why
Oblivion beckons
Join in as the mob salutes another lie
Oblivion beckons
