Burial
There was once a boy that I used to know
Innocence personified, he made his way through his young life
Without a care, he tried so hard
Until the day he lost it all

I remember the day he died so well
I was there
Like Satan rising from the flames of Hell
He was so scared

Everything that he had gained seemed to slip away
And the look in his eyes showed me
That this was meant to be...
Oh, why did he....

Bury it all
Deep down inside
Lock the coffin
With the tears he never cried
No one showed for the funeral
Except for his own ghost
He disappeared, forgotten... and alone

The crashing of the waves still seems so clear to me
Like the clashing of the boy with the world outside
He gave up everything, all he ever knew
Realized that it was time to die

Bury it all
Deep down inside
Lock the coffin
With the tears he never cried
No one showed for the funeral
Except for his own ghost
He disappeared, forgotten... and alone

Now I can't say that I miss him all too much
No one even seems to notice that he's gone
His body drifted out into the sea
Forever killing the boy that lived in me

Bury it all
Deep down inside
Lock the coffin
With the tears I never cried
No one showed for the funeral
Except for this gracious host
Innocence forgotten...
I'm glad that I've grown
