==Lyrics==
    I don’t know if you can hear me over this
    I don’t know if you can hear the sound
    I don’t know if you’re aware of what’s happening 
    I don’t know if you should stick around
    It’s arriving in a wave of violence
    It’s arriving with an elegant grace
    You can’t fuck with the way of nature
    Everything is falling into place
    
    You know what you have done? 
    Welcome oblivion
    And this has just begun 
    Welcome oblivion
    
    All the flashing lights take over
    All the pretty little dots make trails 
    Leading you to your place of deliverance 
    A little look at what’s behind the veil
    
    You know what you have done 
    Welcome oblivion
    And this has just begun 
    Welcome oblivion
    
    And I am not afraid
