IN SEARCH OF OXYGEN song lyrics
by Joel Sattler

in search of oxygen
I can not breathe
faced with a world of lies
I can't believe

I try to live as pure
best as I can
to lead a simple life
a simple man

but there's no air out there
no one to trust
I look for love in eyes
get only lust

no drug is good enough
can't get to sleep
there's poison in my food
I'm scared to eat

I got to break on through
lost what I found
I'm out of balance here
hung upside down

in search of oxygen
I climb the rope
maybe I don't know when
I still have hope

I'm just a stranger here
in a strange land
let me just make it clear
you understand

in search of oxygen
all I can do
I need my oxygen
to make it through

at night up on the roof
shout to the void
the world keeps spinning round
just like a toy

someone just open up
listen to me
I can't unlock my breath
can't find the key

in search of oxygen
under the knife
in search of oxygen
this is my life

Powerful lyrics for a dark song. Sure would like to see it performed.
