Oxygen

I just wrote this one this morning when I got to think of guys - and people in general -- who just bring us down in life. Sometimes, we let them bring us down in life when really, we should be walking away. And then we finally have that moment when we realize it's time to walk away. We can finally breathe again. Have you ever felt this way, friends? xoxo

The floors creak beneath my feet and remind me of when we used to dance
And how we'd dance through the night just to see the sun rise
Being with you was like a dream I could live forever
Now I can't tell the truth from the lies

That girl's face in the mirror
I don't recognize her anymore
What has she let herself become?
She thought it would be so easy
When all she's left with is a painful memory
Doesn't know how to breathe in a room full of oxygen

You made me believe that love was those stars I saw in your eyes and the way your hand felt in mine
But you dragged me down like an anchor
How could I not see those eyes fooling me?
Before I could catch my breath, your love pulled me under

That girl's face in the mirror
I don't recognize her anymore
What has she let herself become?
She thought it would be so easy
When all she's left with is a painful memory
Doesn't know how to breathe in a room full of oxygen

I'm not going down with your ship
So I'm saying goodbye, like two ghosts in the night
So I'm saying goodbye, like two ghosts in the night

That girl's face in the mirror
I don't recognize her anymore
What has she let herself become?
She thought it would be so easy
When all she's left with is a painful memory
Doesn't know how to breathe in a room full of oxygen

That girl's face in the mirror
I don't recognize her anymore
What has she let herself become?
She thought it would be so easy
When all she's left with is a painful memory
Doesn't know how to breathe in a room full of oxygen
