You woke up in the darkness
And you couldn't breathe quite right
You didn't know what time it was
But you knew it wasn't night
You tried to move your arms
But they were pinned up to your side
Your fingers scrape, there's no escape
It's time for you to die

Buried alive, buried alive
Paralyzed under the ground
Buried alive, buried alive
Rotting bodies all around
Buried alive, buried alive
Go ahead and cry
Buried alive, buried alive
It's time for you to die

A claustrophobic nightmare
Suffocating in this cell
You're hands are tied, you're locked inside
The rotting wooden shell
You scream until you're breathless,
But nobodies going to hear
You better say your prayers
Because the end will soon be here

You're body begins in spasms
Suffering from the fright
Breathing getting harder
The coffin is airtight
Panic creates illusions of
Shovels digging overhead
Buried alive you won't survive
Becoming the buried dead.
