Oblivion

Mastodon:"Oblivion", (fra albummet "Crack the skye", 2009):

I flew beyound the sun before it was time
Burning all the gold that held me inside my shell
Waiting for you to pull me back in
I almost had the world in my sight
Lost love
Bright eyes fading
Faster than stars falling
How can I tell you that I´ve failed
Tell you I failed
Falling from grace cause I´ve been away too long
Leaving you behind with my lonesome song
Now I´m lost in oblivion
I tried to burrow a hole into the ground
Breaking all the fingers and the nails from my hand
The eyes of a child see no wrong
Ignorant bliss impending doom
Lost love
Bright eyes fading
Faster than stars falling
How can I tell you that I´ve failed
Tell you I failed
Falling from grace cause I´ve been away too long
Leaving you behind with my lonesome song
Now I´m lost in
Falling from grace cause I´ve been away too long
Leaving you behind with my lonesome song
Now I´m lost in oblivion

(Jeg har i efterhånden et godt stykke tid opfattet Mastodon´s trommeslager Brann Dailor som værende en af de allerdygtigste trommeslagere inden for heavy metal-genren, men ikke nok med at han er et kæmpe talent på trommerne, så viser nummeret "Oblivion" fra Mastodon´s 4. fuldlængde-album "Crack the skye", at Brann Dailor også er en fabelagtig sanger! "Crack the skye" som udkom sidste år er en del lettere tilgængelig end forgængeren "Blood mountain", og i bund og grund også en bedre plade, men når alt kommer til alt, så er og bliver "Leviathan" min absolutte Mastodon-favorit....ihvertfald indtil det næste Mastodon-album udkommer....:-)).
