Lyrics
[Intro: Slow, haunting guitar riff with muted palm strums]
[Verse 1]
Walls closing in, can't catch my breath
This wooden prison, a dance with death
Fingernails bleeding, I claw at the seams
Reality's worse than my darkest dreams
[Pre-Chorus]
Trapped in this box, I'm losing my mind
Freedom's a memory I've left behind
But as I push harder, I start to see
The truth of my grave reality
[Chorus]
Six feet under, I'm buried alive
Dirt's my blanket, as I try to survive
Screaming in silence, no one can hear
My desperate cries as I disappear
Buried alive, buried alive
In this coffin where hope can't survive
[Instrumental: Heavy, distorted power chords with frantic drum fills]
[Verse 2]
The air's getting thinner, each breath is a fight
I'm sinking deeper into endless night
Thought I was trapped, but now I know
I'm in a tomb that's six feet below
[Pre-Chorus]
The earth is my captor, the box is my cell
Each passing moment's a personal hell
I thought I could break free, but now I see
There's no escape from this cemetery
[Chorus]
Six feet under, I'm buried alive
Dirt's my blanket, as I try to survive
Screaming in silence, no one can hear
My desperate cries as I disappear
Buried alive, buried alive
In this coffin where hope can't survive
[Bridge: Quieter, with clean guitar and soft, ticking percussion]
Tick tock goes the clock of my fading life
Each second cuts like a rusted knife
I'm running out of time and air
In this underground nightmare
Was I forgotten or left for dead?
These questions echo in my head
As I lay here in my wooden tomb
Embracing my impending doom
[Instrumental: Build-up with increasingly intense guitar riffs and pounding drums]
[Chorus - with added desperation]
Six feet under, I'm buried alive
Dirt's my blanket, as I try to survive
Screaming in silence, no one can hear
My desperate cries as I disappear
Buried alive, buried alive
In this coffin where hope can't survive
[Outro: Repeated with variations, growing softer]
The earth swallows my final breath
(As I succumb to living death)
My struggles fade into the ground
(Where I'll never be found)
Buried alive, now I am gone
(My requiem, my final song)
In this box beneath the soil
(My eternal, earthen coil)
[Final Instrumental: Fade out with distorted guitar feedback and slow, heavy drum beats mimicking a slowing heartbeat]
[End]
