Buried Alive

Nowhere left for me to hide
Waiting for my paranoia
Way too late to change my mind
No-one wants to beat me
Locked away no place to go
Everything is disappearing
Angels rush to meet the foolish
No-one comes to meet me
I'm just buried alive
Nowhere else left to hide
No-one knows me inside
No-one gets out alive
(Alive) again don't breathe a word
Listen hard and hear the silence
Starve the poor and feed the rich
There's no revolution
Build me up then knock me down
Watch my life collapse around me
Prison cells with no release date
There is no resolution
No-one gets out alive
Nowhere else left to hide
No-one knows me inside
I'm just buried alive
Come and get me and take me away
I don't want you to go
I'm locked in a nightmare
Where you never stay
It can't be the end of the show
Head for the wings and then run for your live
I hope you have somewhere to hide
The devil, no longer has all the best tunes
We've all been buried alive
No-one wants to be me
No-one cares if I'm free
Only God knows that we're all buried alive
No-one wants to come and save me
No-one wants to save my face
No-one wants to stand beside me
No-one wants to take my place
Nowhere left for me to hide
Waiting for my paranoia
Way too late to change my mind
No-one wants to beat me
Locked away no place to go
Everything is disappearing
Angels rush to meet the foolish
No-one comes to meet me
I'm just buried alive
Nowhere else left to hide
No-one knows me inside
No-one gets out alive
No-one wants to be me
No-one cares if I'm free
Only God knows that we're all buried alive
