This song seems to represent the inner struggles we all face as individuals, and how we can get back on our feet when we’ve hit rock bottom
[Verse 1]
All I hear is the sound of falling rain
Each drop echoing my every mistake
Thunder orchestrating my plight
Like taiko, scoring this blight
Steady stream of dirt, pouring on my face
(On my face)
[Pre-Chorus]
I am pulling the boards open
[Chorus]
Just bury me, bury me with my screams
(My screams)
They're pulling me down inside
I can't say that I know where the body lays inside
So bury me with my screams
[Verse 2]
I can taste the graveyard within this soil
(Within this soil)
Decomposing leaves, wood, and motor oil
(And motor oil)
I don't know when I was laid here
It's humid and thick with drear
My heart resonating inside my ears
(Inside my ears)
[Pre-Chorus]
I am pulling the boards open
[Chorus]
Just bury me, bury me with my screams
(My screams)
They're pulling me down inside
I can't say that I know where the body lays inside
So bury me with my screams
[Post-Chorus]
I must claw myself out of this
[Bridge]
I see there is light above me
So I journey up this hell
I refuse to rot in my own prison cell
I dug this hole, threw myself in
And blamed the world
[Refrain]
I know, I know, I know where the body lays
So bury me, bury me, bury me with my screams
[Bridge]
I will climb (I will climb)
From the depths (From the depths)
Innermost (Innermost)
Turmoil
[Refrain]
I know, I know, I know where the body lays
So bury me, bury me, bury me with my screams
[Guitar Solo: Heafy]
[Guitar Solo: Beaulieu]
[Outro]
I am opening the wound
I'm not dying
I am opening the wound
I'm not dying
