I twist and turn, in the darkest space, can't find my worth, as I numb the pain, I'm cold and I'm so afraid, that I'm too weak and I can't change
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
Let me breathe again, show me where I begin, to find the will to change, before I lose everything
Reach down tonight and set me free, and I will follow
I couldn’t sleep I had to listen, into a conscience knowing so well, that nothing comes from indifference
I look inside of myself, will I find some kind of conviction, or will I bid the hero farewell, will I be defined by things I could have been
I guess time will only tell
I curse my worth and every comfort, that blinded me for way too long
Damnit all I’ll make a difference from now on, cause I’m wide awake to it all
Does anyone care it ain't right what we’re doing?
Does anyone care it ain't right where we’re going?
Does anyone dare justify how we’re living?
Does anyone here care at all?
So don’t let it be, before tomorrow comes, before you turn away
Why?
Take the hand in me, before tomorrow comes, you can change everything
We could be so much more than we are, oh this much I know
Are you still lost tonight?
Living but dead inside
This is a proclamation, this is a call to rise
Are you abused, alone?
Walking with broken bones
If you feel you've been forgotten, let this song guide you home
We are the disillusioned, we've been left wanting more, before every aspiration hits the floor
They tell you what you should be, they sell you the plastic dreams
Opinions are all provided, but nothing is what it seems
I dare you to take control
Cause empty are hands and bruised are the souls, of those who show no resistance, of those who are weak below
We are the disenchanted, who die with each passing day
No one here understands us so I say
How will it feel?
To live a lie, until your dying day, where nothing is real
As we sacrifice, bending until we break
It's been revealed
Hold on for your life
Dreams are not theirs to take
Hold on for your life, all we feel is so far from alive
The damned are done believing, and the cursed can dream no more
So hold on for your life, because only the strong survive
I said only the strong survive
These words are part of 'Buried Alive', 'Before Tomorrow Comes', and 'White Knuckles' by Alter Bridge, the best old-school new-attitude hard-rock band today..
These three songs resemble three stages: Problem, evaluation, and solution.
