[Verse 1]You give up a few thingsChasing a dreamI keep running away fromEvery sin I made at seventeenTook the scenic routeDown a dead end streetThought I'd find you thereThought I'd find what I might need[Pre-Chorus]Oh sweet oxygenLet me breathe again[Chorus]And it showsI'm overexposed with fear in towThe same lyrical tropes and overused notesWell I cut the ropeThat I tied to the pastI've always knownI'd like to be the water where you float[Verse 2]You're begging for a reasonI'm trying to explainThat what you're hearing’sWhat I need to sayBeen crawling through the darknessBeen fighting off the painMy scars still showIt gets worse every day[Pre-Chorus]Oh sweet oxygenLet me breathe againWith your hands around my neckI'm starting to give in[Chorus]And it showsI'm overexposed with fear in towThe same lyrical tropes and overused notesI cut the ropeThat I tied to the pastI've always knownI'd like to be the water where you float[Bridge]The sins I made at seventeenHave started crashing down on meI'm swimming againstThe currents of regretThat brought you to me[Chorus]It showsI'm overexposed with fear in towThe same lyrical tropes and overused notesI cut the ropeThat I tied to the pastI've always knownI'd like to be the water where you float
