The 15th and final song on Crypt’s sophomore album, Buried Alive, Crypt addresses cancel culture and the downsides of living life in the public eye. Crypt states that he no longer wants to live a life of fame and this idea would be one of the main points on later track, Crypt’s Carol.
[Intro]
*Noises of shoveling dirt into a hole*
[Chorus]
Somebody save me from myself
I'm followin' my demons all the way to Hell
Talkin' to God
So far away
I'm falling down
I'm buried alive (Buried alive)
[Verse 1]
Do you know what it's like to live your life in the eyes of the public while they wait to watch you fail?
Every day, they're lookin' for somethin' old to bring up somethin' new if they see you doin' well
And God forbid you did some things in the past, man, you might as well just hang it up to dry
'Cause in this day and age, change don't mean a thing, they'll cancel anything in sight
These people are castin' stones for things they've done themselves, they just don't have a million people prayin' they fail
And watchin' every move they make and honin' on their mistakes, and show the world that you're not who they think
The pressure keep mounting higher, I no longer desire to live this life I chose, 'cause I'm no longer inspired
But these people require me to keep bringin' the cyphers, so I'll speak till I'm tired, holdin' my feet to the fire, screamin'-
[Chorus]
Somebody save me from myself
I'm followin' my demons all the way to Hell
I'm falling down
I'm buried alive (Buried alive)
[Verse 2]
"It's like I read your mind, dude!" Fine, then why would you even try to
Keep and hide secrets deep inside? You're speakin' lies that redefined who I knew
What can I do? Stuck in my room, demons swirl around like typhoons
Life is like a tightrope that I'm walkin', and I wanna take that rope and tie a noose
Preparin' to die, scary inside, bottomless lows, harrowin' highs
Starin' in the eyes of death, I'm paralyzed, I guess it's time for them to bury me alive
Maybe now you see, the bar you set for me is higher than the one that I can actually reach
This is what you wanted, raise your shovels high, lay me in the dirt and bury me alive!
[Chorus]
Somebody save me from myself
I'm followin' my demons all the way to Hell (Bury me alive, bury me alive!)
Talkin' to God (Bury me alive!)
So far away (Bury me, bury me, bury me alive!)
I'm falling down ('Ing down, 'ing down, 'ing down, down, down, down, down)
I'm buried alive (Bury me, bury me, bury me alive!)
[Outro]
I'm falling down
I'm buried alive (Buried alive)
