about

"Oxygen" is a heavy metal piece that exemplifies the direction that Two Eyes for the Dead is taking their music. Marked by quintessentially metal guitar, bass and drums, the instrumentality of "Oxygen" stays true to the genre of metal while Murphy's vocal delivery makes the song something else entirely. Finally, a metal song where the vocals involve singing rather than screaming.

lyrics

Pushed to extremes, and my heart is about to burst
I can taste copper, but blood cannot curb my thirst
Do I need to believe? Or do I disregard everything?
Are you still part of me? Or do I disregard everything?

Gracefully shed your shirt; give it to me as you burn
You are so full of oxygen, so lacking fuel
How do you light the path before you?
Disregard everything?

Disregard everything I am blind. You and I

Fuck what you know, thieving tornado
Turning and twisting around every word
Slowly melting me—always changing me
You think I’m better than I was before?

I'm so ecstatic you fell from the sky
No one more suited to teach and destroy
So, we in turn forget and return
To our withering, wanting existence
