Hi everyone,

Can you believe it's already been a month since Patch 5.2 launched? Time really does fly!

Between the new Eden raid, ocean fishing, and Ishgardian Restoration there's much to experience! Throughout your journeys, do you ever stop and take a moment to get lost in the music?

The latest installment of the Eden raid series introduced a lot of surprises and "familiar" foes! Primals like Ramuh and Shiva were not the only things re-imagined throughout the raid series though, as players were pleasantly surprised to hear re-imagined tracks by Soken himself! There's one song in particular that gives me chills every time I hear it. I'm sure you know which I'm referring to!

Without further ado, let's take a look at the lyrics for Return to Oblivion!

======================= Return to Oblivion

Wanting, I lie

Too weary to die

Too lost to the ice for saving

My sins claim me, untame me

Eyes wet with tears

Her song in my ears

Broken, faded, how long have I waited

To open my wings?

Turn the light on

And let her in. Won't you

Turn the light on

Turn the light on

You'll never win 'less you

Turn the light on

Turn the light on

The pain won't end 'till you

Turn the light on

The soul longs for oblivion, oblivion

Falling too far for the fear to embrace me

A voice from the past screaming there is no end (no)

A slave to my fate, ever doomed to repeat this

again and again and again and again (yeah, I'm)

Falling too fast, no it won't overtake me

A voice from the past echoes loud like a drum (oh, yes)

no more goodbyes, though my heart is still aching

Now open my eyes, one more time, Here I come

Reason resigned

Dark seasons' design

Spring's promise of sun is honored

When winter's weighed down on us

Visions in white

Raw fury in flight

Clear as diamond, yet fragile as ice

My heart is racing

Turn the light on

And let her in. Won't you

Turn the light on

Turn the light on

You'll never win 'less you

Turn the light on

Turn the light on

The pain won't end 'till you

Turn the light on

The soul longs for oblivion, oblivion

Falling too far for the fear to embrace me

A voice from the past screaming there is no end (no)

A slave to my fate, ever doomed to repeat this

again and again and again and again (yeah, I'm)

Falling too fast, but the fall will not break me

A voice from the past echoes loud like a drum (oh, yes)

no more goodbyes, I am tired of waiting

Now open my eyes, one last time, Here I come (yeah I come)

=======================

There's so much raw emotion in the words!

This song is also available to purchase on the recently released Shadowbringers EP!

Next time you journey into Refulgence, you can sing along and get even more hyped to prevail!
