Oblivion
Chasing Summer's Fade: Journey into Oblivion with Swede and Skogen
Lyrics
There goes that summer sun
The summer sun is departing.
There goes that summer sun with you
Highlighting the departure of the summer sun along with someone.
Into oblivion
Heading or disappearing into complete obscurity or forgetfulness.
Into oblivion with you
Emphasizing the idea of entering oblivion alongside another person.
Down by the river exploring
Being near the river and engaging in exploration or discovery.
Sunburn on my forehead
An indication of having a sunburn on the forehead, possibly from spending time outdoors.
I was down there with Thomas
Recalling a moment spent down by the river with someone named Thomas.
Or was I with you
Uncertain about whether the experience was with Thomas or the person being addressed.
I don't think we're coming home
Expressing doubt about returning home.
But I don't really care
Indifference toward the prospect of returning home.
Take what's mine and I'll go
Willingness to leave with what belongs to oneself.
Nothing's happening and that's horrible
Feeling discomfort or dissatisfaction with the lack of events or changes.
And when I fall I know you'll come around and pick me up
Belief that the addressed person will offer support when the speaker is in trouble.
And when you fall I hope you know I'm gonna pick you up too
Commitment to assisting the addressed person in times of need.
I don't think we're coming home
Reiteration of uncertainty about returning home.
But I don't really care
Remaining indifferent about the idea of returning home.
There goes that summer sun
The summer sun is departing.
There goes that summer sun with you
Underlining the departure of the summer sun along with someone.
Into oblivion
Heading or disappearing into complete obscurity or forgetfulness.
Into oblivion with you
Emphasizing the idea of entering oblivion alongside another person.
Down by the river exploring
Being near the river and engaging in exploration or discovery.
Sunburn on my forehead
An indication of having a sunburn on the forehead, possibly from spending time outdoors.
I was down there with Thomas
Recalling a moment spent down by the river with someone named Thomas.
Or was I with you
Uncertain about whether the experience was with Thomas or the person being addressed.
I don't think we're coming home
Expressing doubt about returning home.
But I don't really care
Indifference towards the prospect of returning home.
