Dead & Buried

Let me find the way that I can make do

Without circumstance

without follow through

A man in desperation can't trust a troubled mind

I'm building an empire

say I'm wrong

I don't mind if it's all against one

No room for weakness

I'll be gone forever

Dear mother

as this noose is placed around my neck

I'm reflecting on these past few years I spent trying to forget

I'm regretting all this time spent half the world away

What will the children sing

what will the children sing

When I'm dead and buried?

Dead and buried

Dead and buried

Dead and buried

Dead and buried

I can't fight it

I can't fight it

I can't fight it

I've slipped through the cracks

I hold nothing back

Dear mother

as this noose is placed around my neck

I'm reflecting on these past few years I spent trying to forget

I'm regretting all this time spent half the world away

What will the children sing

what will the children sing

When I'm dead and buried?

Dead and buried

Dead and buried

Dead and buried

Dead and buried

Never thought it'd be easy

'cause it's not if it's worth to have

It'll pass you by

you have a choice

be your own person

have your own voice

So let's set it off!

Dear mother

as this noose is placed around my neck

I'm reflecting on these past few years I spent trying to forget

I'm regretting all this time spent half the world away

What will the children sing

what will the children sing

When I'm dead and buried?

Dead and buried

Dead and buried

Dead and buried

Dead and buried
