Burial, the final track on Blind Girls' Residue, deals heavily with themes of suicidality and a yearning for death. The album closes with a climatic finish: it concludes that if being alive is synonymous with suffering, it is better not to be alive at all.
Buried in dreams of not
Waking, I dig my last hole
In the ground
Fleeting validity
In the ground
Fleeting
Validity
I crawl inside and see
What I become
If being alive
Means you feel this way
If being alive
Means you feel this way
Let soil become stone
And rest my head beneath
Let soil become stone
And rest my head beneath
Everything bleeds while I rot
Everything bleeds while I rot
Everything bleeds while I rot
Everything bleeds
