Buried Alive

Took it down to make minor fix. Sorry

You were supposed to love me
Accept me for who I became
Not tear me down each daybreak
With words of regret and shame
The words left scars, they changed me
Sometimes I'm wishing to be buried alive

I wanted to love you
But you never seemed impressed
I was never good enough
You pumped me full of regrets
No matter what I did
How hard I tried, when I improvised
You acted like you wanted me buried alive

I felt sorry, answered your every command
Tried to change myself, if you'd be mine again
I tried to run faster, I tried to stay strong
The day you left, I forgot all I'd known
The battle insured but I swore
I'd avoid being buried alive

You threw every obstacle my way
By the time I found out it was to late
You've set the dominos in motion, it's to late to go back
My grave is practically ready, you wish I'd jump
I've made it my very mission
Not to be buried alive

Working and studying harder
Working to stay three steps ahead
Because the things you said back then
Are my motivations never to cave again
I have goals in my mind, you will never understand
But I know they are possible, because
I refuse to be buried alive

When I make something of myself
you'll have reason to want me again
It's already to late because you threw me away
I'll never forgive you, I'll never be sorry
Never plan to change, I'll prove you wrong
Already working to prove myself, to myself
These are the reasons I won't be buried alive
