Oblivion (New Wave Version)

[Dreamy Synth with Mid Tempo] [Verse 1] I always thought it was a shame We allowed ourselves to become estranged Our stubbornness drove us apart Neither prepared to make a change [Short Synth Guitar] [Verse 2] And now they say the end is near Now all I feel is deep regret Of all the time we've wasted apart Holding on to blame we should forget [Pre-chorus] It's a shame it took something like this To force us to reconnect Rekindling the love we thought was lost In the face of this apocalyptic threat [Chorus] We hoped this day would never come That all scientists warnings would be undone As we look up at the burning sun Praying that something can be done We hoped this day would never come As we stare into oblivion [Verse 3] They always said that we were perfect That nothing could tear us apart But petty squabbles that were meaningless Why did we take them all to heart [Pre-chorus] It's a shame it took something like this To force us to reconnect Rekindling the love we thought was lost In the face of this apocalyptic threat [Chorus] We hoped this day would never come That all scientists warnings would be undone As we look up at the burning sun Praying that something can be done We hoped this day would never come As we stare into oblivion [Complex Synth Solo with drum rolls] [Instrumental Break] [Melodic Synth Guitar Solo] [Verse 4] Living each day like it's the last Unaware of how much longer is left Trying to make up for the time we lost As chaos descends on the lives of the rest [Pre-chorus] It's a shame it took something like this To force us to reconnect Rekindling the love we thought was lost In the face of this apocalyptic threat [Chorus] We hoped this day would never come That all scientists warnings would be undone As we look up at the burning sun Praying that something can be done We hoped this day would never come As we stare into oblivion We hoped this day would never come As we stare into oblivion [Short Synth Guitar] As we stare into oblivion [Short Synth Guitar] As we stare into oblivion We hoped this day would never come As we stare into oblivion [Ending]
