It started in the winter at the edge of a dead end drive
I had frost in my bones, I was thinking of home
And I was trying to survive
We'd been spending our days
Just dreaming of ways to generate a single spark
Couldn't conjure a flame, and I was to blame
And all the sudden everything went dark
And the claws came out
♪
Oh! I can hear 'em coming like a freight train in my head
I'm never going home again
Oh, I can taste the end (in the air)
You never think about gravity until you hit the ground
Come on and take a look around
How could I have missed the fangs and the hungry eyes?
Oh, I can taste the end in the oxygen
The oxygen I breathe
Every deep breath keeps pulling me under
Oh, I can taste the end in the oxygen
The oxygen I breathe
Every deep breath keeps pulling me under
Now I can feel the venom make a beeline for my heart
I should've seen it coming from the start
But staring at the fire can blind the best of us
Oh, I can taste the end in the oxygen
The oxygen I breathe
Every deep breath keeps pulling me under
Oh, I can taste the end in the oxygen
The oxygen I breathe, yeah
You left my body in the snow
But I want every coward here to know
You'll reap the poison that you sow
The stains you try to cover up will show
Oh, I can taste the end in the oxygen
The oxygen I breathe
Every deep breath keeps pulling me under
Oh, I can taste the end in the oxygen
The oxygen I breathe
Every deep breath keeps pulling me under, oh
