about

The second single from our post-apocalyptic debut EP.

lyrics

Wanna feel clean again
Pure like the April rain
Wanna unzip this skin
Flesh itching from within

Saltwater on your lips
Raw on my fingertips
Under a blood red sun
Everybody needs oxygen

Suspicious when we meet
Strangers on guilty street
Cured then I'm killed by you
Shamed just for wanting to

Nails tangle in your hair
You catch me and you take me there
Don't get this thing we've done
Everybody needs oxygen

I'm handing back my life
Driving through red lights
Chasing horzions down
Run til the road runs out

Saltwater on your lips
Raw on my fingertips
Under a blood red sun
Everybody needs oxygen

Light burning on my face
Bites like a rattlesnake
Under a blood red sun
Everybody needs oxygen
