Waiting for the ride in the dark
At night the city grows
Look at the horizon glow
Waiting for the ride in the dark
Following the neon signs
Looking at the milky skyline
The city is my church
It wraps me in its blinding twilight
Waiting for the ride in the dark

Waiting in the car
Waiting for the ride in the dark

Oblivion
Length: 5:56
Release: 2015
Opening Lyrics:
It’s my point of view
‘Cause someone could break your neck
Coming up behind you
Always coming and you’d never have a clue
I never look behind all the time
I will wait forever
Always looking straight
Thinking, counting all the hours you wait
See you on a dark night
See you on a dark night
See you on a dark night
I would ask if you could help me out
It’s hard to understand
‘Cause when you’re running by yourself
It’s hard to find someone to hold your hand
You know it’s good to be tough like me
