Oxygen lyrics

How do I answer you? How do I respond to you? I offer you exigence I take away consequence Where do we go from here? What do I do with this? I offer you oxygen In hopes that you'll breathe again I'll stare at the starry fields There I'll begin to heal I've given up on looking back I've given up on loosing track How do I compensate? All that's been done to you How do I recognize? The things I won't ask of you I hope I don't become them Though I'm from the same skin It's simply an overcoat to cover up
