Oxygen Lyrics

Put on a clean shirt

Dust off your smile

And tell the whole world about the girl you admire

While she does the same

Tells the whole world your name

Prays the next time you see her

The feelings haven't changed

God I hope I run out of oxygen

Somewhere in this room

Cause I can't afford

To breathe air that's not yours

And every time you leave me

It's never not too soon

Or do we just love the quiet

Of closed doors in our tomb

She knew it had to happen

He lived in denial

Saw the foundation cracking

And ran forty miles

She'd fall asleep first

And he'd tuck her in

Turn off the light

"I love you, goodnight"

God I hope I run out of oxygen

Somewhere in this room

Cause I can't afford

To breathe air that's not yours

And every time you leave me

It's never not too soon

Or do we just love the quiet

Of closed doors in our tomb

I wish I could see myself

Through your eyes

And give you a glance

Of what you look like through mine

I wish I could see myself

Through your eyes

And give you a glance

Of what you look like through mine

God I hope I run out of oxygen

Somewhere in this room

Cause I can't afford

To breathe air that's not yours

And every time you come home

It's never too soon

So hold me in your arms

Till I turn off the light for you
