Dead & Buried

Let me find the way that I can make do
 Without circumstance, without follow through
 A man in desperation can't trust a troubled mind
 I'm building an empire, say I'm wrong
 I don't mind if it's all against one
 No room for weakness, I'll be gone forever
 Dear mother, as this noose is placed around my neck
 I'm reflecting on these past few years I spent trying to forget
 I'm regretting all this time spent half the world away
 What will the children sing, what will the children sing
 When I'm dead and buried?
 Dead and buried, dead and buried
 Dead and buried, dead and buried
 I can't fight it, I can't fight it
 I can't fight it, I've slipped through the cracks

 I hold nothing back
 Dear mother, as this noose is placed around my neck
 I'm reflecting on these past few years I spent trying to forget

 What will the children sing, what will the children sing
 When I'm dead and buried?
 Dead and buried, dead and buried
 Dead and buried, dead and buried
 ♪
 Never thought it'd be easy 'cause it's not if it's worth to have
 It'll pass you by, you have a choice
 Be your own person, have your own voice

 So let's set it off
