In this introspective track, the band explores themes of nostalgia, regret, and the passage of time. The lyrics hint at a longing for past days, referred to as "Days of Oblivion," which might symbolize periods of ignorance or innocence. There's an acknowledgment of mistakes made and lessons learned, with references to self-destruction and disaster. However, there's also a strong message of resilience and redemption. The song talks about not needing to destroy everything to start anew; instead, one can simply ask for help or change. Further, it emphasizes the importance of mutual dependence in relationships through repeated lines like "I know I need you" and "Don't ever leave me." Overall, this song encapsulates the struggle between holding onto past memories and moving forward in life.
Days Of Oblivion
Lyrics
All the times that now and then appear as only dreams
All the stuff from way back when that's coming up don't self destruct
You don't have to call for the wrecking ball
Or burn the world to ashes
All you have to do is ask me to
I'll stop you where the descending stairs drop
I've unlocked all the doors
And I've lost all the keys
And I live in a mansion made up of memories
Bob said don't look back
John said I don't believe
Jerry said there are days between days
Days of oblivion
Days of oblivion
It turns out these were the days
It turns out these were the days
Days of oblivion
Days of oblivion
It turns out these were the days
The ashes of disaster drift to you
All your dreams of change are coming true
I know I need you
I know I need you
Don't ever leave me
I'll never leave you behind
I know you need me
The way I need you
I'll never leave you
Don't ever leave me behind
I know I need you
You know I need you
Don't ever leave me
I'd never leave you behind
The way you need me
The way I need you
I'd never leave you
I'll never leave you behind
No
No
No
I've unlocked all the doors
I'll never find the keys
And I live in a mansion now made up of memories
Bob said don't look back
John said I don't believe
Jerry said there are days between days
Days of oblivion
Days of oblivion
It turns out these were the days
It turns out these were the days
Days of oblivion
Days of oblivion
It turns out these were the days
The ashes of disaster drift to you
At last, you really see me
All the times that now and then appear as only dreams
All the stuff from way back when that's coming up don't self destruct
You don't have to call for the wrecking ball
Or burn the world to ashes
All you have to do is ask me to
I'll stop you where the descending stairs drop
All the things that now and then appear as only dreams
All the stuff from way back when that's coming up don't self destruct
You don't have to call for the wrecking ball
Or burn the world to ashes
All you have to do is ask me to
I'll stop you where the descending stairs drop
