Alter Bridge

Buried Alive

I twist and turn
In the darkest space
Can’t find my worth
As I numb the pain
Last to the sky
With a black toothed grin
This whiskey smile
Takes me down again

I’m cold
And I’m so afraid
And I’m too weak
And I can’t change

I’ve been buried alive
And I don’t want to be here anymore
Reached out a thousand times
For a hand to pull me from below
I’ve been buried alive
In a world of constant sorrow
Reached out tonight to set me free
Save tomorrow

Another shot
Slip into the haze
Another night
Soaked in my disgrace
So sooth the lie
Raise my glass and run
A wasted life
What have I become

I’ve been buried alive
And I don’t want to be here anymore
Reached out a thousand times
For a hand to pull me from below
I’ve been buried alive
In a world of constant sorrow
Reached out tonight to set me free
Save tomorrow

Save tomorrow
Save tomorrow

Let me breathe again
And show me where I began
To find the will to change
Before I lose everything
