Buried Beneath

My eyes have adjusted to dark and so is my heart

The weight of the world has covered me

I'm in over my head

Am I living or dead

Can anyone hear me calling out

I'm calling out

Finally breaking so where are you now

It's been such a long time

But I've tried to live without

I'm suffocating I need you to breathe

So reach down and pull me up

Pull me up before I am buried beneath

I built this house on the shore

All I want was more

But I felt the sand start shifting

I saw the cracks in the walls

I painted over them all

I tried my best to just ignore

I can't ignore

Finally breaking so where are you now

It's been such a long time

But I've tried to live without

I'm suffocating I need you to breathe

So reach down and pull me up

Pull me up before I am buried beneath

I Thought I was climbing out

But it's dragging me down

What's hidden here with me

Thought I was alone

But it pulls me deeper now

I can't escape

Finally breaking so where are you now

It's been such a long time

But I've tried to live without

I'm suffocating I need you to breathe

So reach down and pull me up

Pull me up before I am buried beneath
