“BURIED ALIVE”
(N. MICHALAK)

Gravedigger
(Gravedigger)

Digging the dirt, with every shot
You cannot stop
Opening the grave, with every taste
It’s such a waste

(Chorus)
  Burning life’s short line
  You steal your own time
  No desire to survive

  It’s what you crave
  Dig your own grave
  Bury yourself alive

Gravedigger
(Gravedigger)

Take another hit, the insanity
Jump in the grave
Mindless suicide, the reality
You won’t be saved

You’re just a slave

(Chorus)
  Burning life’s short line
  You steal your own time
  No desire to survive

  It’s what you crave
  Dig your own grave
  Bury yourself alive

  Suffocate your mind
  And burn the sands of time
  Trapped six feet under

  Pull the dirt on down
  Addiction has you bound
  Your death is no wonder

Buried alive
You cannot survive
Buried alive
Build your own demise
Buried alive
No use to revive

Gravedigger
(Gravedigger)

(Chorus)
  Burning life’s short line
  You steal your own time
  No desire to survive

  It’s what you crave
  Dig your own grave
  Bury yourself alive

  Suffocate your mind
  And burn the sands of time
  Trapped six feet under

  Pull the dirt on down
  Addiction has you bound
  Your death is no wonder


Another song dealing with drug addiction.  This one seems more self-evident than "NIGHTMARES" with the use of the words "addiciton", "shot", & "taste".  This basically states how succumbing to the addiction is like burying yourself alive.  The more you "shoot-up", the more you snort, only pulls more dirt down over your proverbial grave.
