O2 Lyrics

i wanna run away
i wanna get away
but i will never get up
oh won't you help me up

i rely on oxygen
i depend on bitter snow
i rely on oxygen
i depend on bitter cold

i want to know
why it hurts to stay
and hurts to go away
will i be ok?
crawled out of the mud
this filth called your love
slept for countless days
but i will be ok

i didn't know i could feel this low
so afraid that i'll watch you go

take my strength out
but i'm not down
write this reverse
i'm not down

I know it's a long time since this song was released, but I can't contain my confusion any longer...does anyone have an opinion as to what the references to "depending on bitter cold" and "bitter snow" relate to?

@mbwood hoping my book might explain some things. ;)
