Alter Bridge
Buried Alive
[Verse 1]
I twist and turn
In the darkest space
Can't find my worth
As I numb the pain
Glass to the sky
With a black-tooth grin
This whiskey smile
Takes me down again

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm cold and I'm so afraid
That I'm too weak and I can't change

[Chorus]
I've been buried alive
And I don't want to be here anymore
Reached out a thousand times
For a hand to pull me from below
I've been buried alive
In a world of constant sorrow
Reach down tonight and set me free
Save tomorrow

[Verse 2]
Another shot
Slip into the haze
Another night
Soaked in my disgrace
Toast to the lie
I'll raise my glass and run
A wasted life
What have I become?
[Chorus]
I've been buried alive
And I don't want to be here anymore
Reached out a thousand times
For a hand to pull me from below
I've been buried alive
In a world of constant sorrow
Reach down tonight and set me free
Save tomorrow

[Post-Chorus]
Save tomorrow
Save tomorrow

[Bridge]
Let me breathe again
And show me where I begin
To find the will to change
Before I lose everything
Before I lose everything

[Chorus]
I've been buried alive
And I don't want to be here anymore
Reached out a thousand times
For a hand to pull me from below
I've been buried alive
In a world of constant sorrow
Reach down tonight and set me free
And I will follow
[Outro/Guitar Solo: Mark Tremonti]
I've been buried alive
I've been buried alive
I've been buried alive
I've been buried alive
