Buried Alive
My blood is boiling
And i cannot live this way
A bullet just to fill my heart
To fill it up with lead
A hollow crack
An empty scream
Now suddenly we're through
I'm already sick of the mourning
And its only just begun
Your final words still ringing in my head
Reverberating with each and every thought
Even in death your thought tortures me
My lungs convulging as my breath leaves me alone
The voices screaming
Trying to consume me
All these maggots writhe around
Crawling through my corpse
They feed on anger more than putrid rotting flesh
My muffles screams coming out in silent yelps
Will anybody help me
I am smothered by my thoughts
Im begging for forgiveness
If i love you now
Will you promise to bury me alive
