Lyrics for O2

I wanna run away I wanna get away But I will never get up Oh won't you help me up I rely on oxygen I depend on the bitter snow I rely on oxygen I depend on the bitter cold I want to know Why it hurts to stay And hurts to go away Will I be ok? Crawled out of the mud This filth you called your love Slept for countless days But I will be ok I wanna run away I wanna get away But I will never get up Oh won't you help me up I rely on oxygen I depend on the bitter snow I rely on oxygen I depend on the bitter cold I didn't know I could feel this low So afraid that I'll watch you go I didn't know I could feel this low So afraid that I'll watch you go Take my strength out But I'm not down Write this reverse I'm not down I wanna run away I wanna get away But I will never get up Oh won't you help me up Take my strength out But I'm not down Write this reverse I'm not down
