Tony Iommi - Black Oblivion Lyrics

[featuring Billy Corgan]



You ask me why

I'll tell you die

My head is full of lies

And I am beyond high



You don't know just what I'm waiting for

Acid burns my skull as blind as snow

Black oblivion drags me ever towards

I dream tomorrow till tomorrow is nevermore



Voices tell me strike the match and burn it all to hell

Voices tell me I could watch if I promise not to tell



You don't know just where I want to go

The cross won't save you from your fallen soul



Drive slow motion firewall

Candy apple fuse

Emotions are unattached as demons are amused



Family spins the circle

Nerves are growing cold

Shotgun to the temple

Nausea down below

No more talking backwards

Or fists to the heart

Blacklight tries to capture

One more superstar



No more lines to cross

No more lines, I'm lost



No more lines, I'm lost



You don't know just where I want to go

Acid burns a hole right through my soul

Black oblivion, my long lost friend

Lord forgive me for I have sinned
