"Half Past Dead (Unbury Me)" lyrics

An outcast
As I live and breathe
On the surface
Dying underneath
I was taken
Where no one ever sees
Hiding from myself swimming six feet deep

Buried like a secret that you wouldn't keep
A grave is not a place for the living to sleep
A dead man's soul is not a soul set free
Somebody unbury me

Dig me out
Because I can't make it out alone
My body rotting to the bone
I'm half past dead but still breathing

The silence
Is louder than it seems
In the darkness
It's all that I can see
Nothing left to say when there's nothing to believe
Locked away inside and I swallowed the key

Can you hear me now
From the underground
Does it make a sound
(Dig me out)
(Unbury me)

Dig me out
Because I can't make it out alone
My body rotting to the bone
I'm half past dead but still breathing
Dig me out
Because I can't make it out alone
I lost all body, mind, and soul
I'm half past dead but still breathing

How many days can I waste away
Trapped inside of this hell in a slow decay

How many days can I waste away
Trapped inside of this hell in a slow decay

Dig me out
Because I can't make it out alone
My body rotting to the bone
I'm half past dead

Dig me out
Because I can't make it out alone
I lost all body, mind, and soul
I'm half past dead but still breathing

(Dig me out from the underground)
Still breathing
(Does it make a sound)
I'm half past dead, but still breathing
Half past dead, but still breathing
