Bury
Third And Forever Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm feeling down
I'm circling a hole in the ground
I'm planning my escape when I lie awake
Out of sight and out of mind, I'm better off that way

I'm only gonna hurt myself again
I'll barely live a life if I stay here
Circling a hole in the ground
I took what's left of me and hid it away
So it'll never be found
Anything is better than where I am now
I wish that you could understand its wearing me down

You only cared about yourself
And where you fit into all of this
If you don't want me around then bury me

I wont make room for you
This life is far to short

The days are getting darker
I wish that I could stay inside my dreams




The nights are getting colder
I wish that I could stay inside my dreams
