I awaken, in a place no one should
A smell of dirt and walls of wood
My eyes are open, all I see is black
The realization, a sudden attack;
I'm buried
I scream and scratch in rabid desperation
For hours or days, I'm losing sensation
And when I finally long for death
I hear the sound of my salvation
It cannot be misheard
Someone's digging through the earth
They know I'm here
They're coming for me
I'm buried
Buried alive
Doubtful thoughts fill me with dread;
Are the sounds all in my head?
No, I hear it loud and clear
The coffin trembles as they draw near
When I learn the nature of my fate
Oh, if I could remain in this crate
Hope turns to horror as the casket is breached
The sounds are coming from beneath
It cannot be misheard
Someone's digging through the earth
They know I'm here
They're coming for me
I'm buried
Buried alive
