OXYMORON began in the early '90s when the punk scene had again been driven to the underground and the mainstream was making the transition from hard rock to grunge and metal. They played a form of Oi! music that resisted the stereotypical racial issues and instead was one of the first revivalists to emphasize that the music was still a viable force in the undergound. Continuing their efforts into the next century, the band stands as a model for carefully designing a career around a genre that has fallen out of favor with many over misunderstood intentions.

Run From Reality Lyrics

Oxymoron

Suddenly the things ain't what they used to be
Now everything's changed and I wonder why
Too scared to face the possibilities
My life's so different I wanna close my eyes

Can't get rid of the gnawing fear inside me
Denying it all is just the real insanity

[chorus:]
I try to run, I try to flee
...but you can't run from reality
I try to run, to run away
...no use to call 999

It's been my self-protection but now I've got the prove
So far I've been to blind to accept the fucking truth
Well now I've come to see which way the cat jumps
And that's the reason why it's getting out of hand

Can't get it out, this gnawing fear inside me
Denying it all is just sheer insecurity

Suddenly hte things ain't what they used to be
The lie I've been living is catching up with me
Yeah I quit my job cos I wanna be free
But what a living do I get without a pay
...no way

Repressed them all, these bothering things that annoyed me
It ain't nothing new to turn your back on reality
