The sixth track on Black Mountain’s album Wilderness Heart.
The song tells a story of a person who is about to die and is strangely ok with that.
[Verse 1]
Absorbed forever, into the darkest shades
Vanished from the light, to the still colonies
Enslaved forever, buried by the blues
Wear your wounds like a soldier and let your ghosts run loose
[Chorus]
Against the night, you will rise and set your body free
Frontier of light, you desire to let your body sleep
Away from the static and noise
[Verse 2]
Exploding waves, you wish you could belong
The piper at the gates, to steal you from the dawn
No suicide could ever change your fate
Fold your hands in reprieve, beneath the trembling rain
[Chorus 2]
Against the night, you will rise and set your body free
Frontier of light, you desire to let you body sleep
Away from the static and noise
Away from the bombs and the war
Away from the static and noise
Buried By The Blues was produced by Dave Sardy.
