about

Sweet Oblivion is all about summer vibes and feeling free in nature. It’s about self-acceptance and being happy where you are and having no worries in the world when you’re in paradise (aka Prince Edward Island beaches).

lyrics

Sweet Oblivion - Kinley Dowling / Maïa Davies / Janaya McCallum

I am a lonely only child
Talk to myself I’m a Pisces sign
Yeah you can call me a weirdo
But I know I know
That I belong in the wind and blooms
Under the apple trees of my youth
I like to go slow to watch the beauty in slo-mo

I run free
Through castles of clouds
By the sea
On my skin feel the sun come undone

And it’s sweet oblivion
Da dee dum da dee da da
Into deep waters and I come through
And I’m reconnected from a blissful view
And it’s all reflected
Sweet oblivion
Da dee dum da dee da da
Da dee dum da dee da da
It’s the sweet
It’s the sweet
The sweetest love

So turn down the noise
Turn up the dream
I made a world that’s all for me
And I can burst out of my seams
With love and ethereality
I belong in the wind and blooms
Under the apple trees of my youth
I like to go slow to watch the beauty in slo-mo

I run free
Through castles of clouds
By the sea
On my skin feel the sun come undone

And it’s sweet oblivion
Da dee dum da dee da da
Into deep waters and I come through
And I’m reconnected from a blissful view
And it’s all reflected
Sweet oblivion
Da dee dum da dee da da
Da dee dum da dee da da
It’s the sweet
It’s the sweet
The sweetest love

And when I go I’m never gone
‘Cause my heart’s on the shoreline
I will die as I was born
Sandstone in the moonlight

I thank God for my crazy friends
Hang at the bar like it’s our living room
Peel back the fruit
Seen by many known by few
And here we are catching the good in everything

And it’s sweet oblivion
Da dee dum da dee da da
Into deep waters and I come through
And I’m reconnected from a blissful view
And it’s all reflected
Sweet oblivion
Da dee dum da dee da da
Da dee dum da dee da da
It’s the sweet
The sweet
The sweetest love

The sweetest love
Sweet oblivion
Sweetest love
Sweet oblivion
