The Oblivion

Quick! The oblivion, let's go!
Oblivion is where we'll claim.
We're off to be forgotten,
Forgotten is what we aim.

Slip from memories that might care.
We'll disappear without a trace,
More soundless than the silence,
More weightless than out in space.

Plunge fearless toward the emptiness.
Allow the black void to deepen.
Courage to be unknown and free.
Ah, the pure oblivion!

We are gladly obliterated...
