Buried

Sometime back in 2014 (I think)


Trapped in a fantasy we no longer control,

Buried under the earth never to be found again,

Calling out to never be heard again,

Searching in the dark with our eyes tight shut,

Afraid we’ll never see again,

Afraid to open our eyes and realise…

Afraid to realise that this is the rest life,

Adapting to our life in the darkness,

And maybe this is all we’ll ever be,

Just the creatures that live underground,

While the rest of you smile and laugh without us.

We don’t belong down here, yet here we are,

We don’t want to live in darkness forever,

Yet we’re too afraid of the light,

Too afraid of the truth to admit defeat,

What the hell are we doing with our lives?

Just living in the dark, cowering in the shadows.

We so fucking lost in the dark,

We’re so lost in our fantasy,

Too afraid of reality,

We don’t belong here.
