Oxygen

[Verse 1]
Got words starting a fight in my head
Lines I think I've already read
Maybe it's just something I said
It's getting me now

[Verse 2]
I hope some sleep on the plane
Wake up, it's another runway
And home's 5000 miles away
It's getting me down

[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, we can better and we know it
We can feel something in the air
You're telling me you'll be here forever
But what does it mean if I'm not there?

[Chorus]
It's making my heart bleed
You are the oxygen I need
I'm not myself when I'm lonely
But I've got to get what I'm owed
Ooh

[Verse 3]
The world is in the palm of my hands
Slipping through my fingers like sand
I know that you can't understand
What's getting me down

[Verse 4]
I wish that you were here by my side
To bring a little peace to my mind
Talk a while and help me decide
What's getting me down

[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, we can better and we know it
We can feel something in the air
You're telling me you'll be here forever
But what does it mean if I'm not there?

[Chorus]
It's making my heart bleed
You are the oxygen I need
I'm not myself when I'm lonely
But I've got to get what I'm owed
Ooh

[Bridge]
If I was a stronger man, would I be
Half the man I am, would you still want me
Take me as I am, all my oddities

[Chorus]
It's making my heart bleed
You are the oxygen I need
I'm not myself when I'm lonely
But I've got to get what I'm owed
Ooh
