I carry the burden of losing rest
upon my shoulders
and its weight seems unbearable
your tomb is where your heart is,
i should have told her
but within a secret so terrible
To cry is to know that you're alive
but my river of tears has run dry
i never wanted to fool you, no
but a cold heart is a dead heart
and it feels like i've been buried alive by love
If i should die before i wake
bring no one my soul to take
if i wake before i die,
rescue me with your smile
If i should die before i wake
bring no one my soul to take
if i wake before i die,
rescue me with your smile
The kiss of vanity you blessed me with, spiritual woman,
then you got someone insatiable
your home is there in the darkness, i should have told her
embrace the fire indestructible
To die is to know that you're alive
and my river of blood won't run dry
i never wanted to lose you, no
but a cold heart is a dead heart
and it feels like i've been buried alive by love
If i should die before i wake
bring no one my soul to take
if i wake before i die,
rescue me with your smile
If i should die before i wake
bring no one my soul to take
if i wake before i die,
rescue me with your smile
Oh, it seems to cry is to know that you're alive
and my river of tears has run dry
i never wanted to fool you, no
but a cold heart is a dead heart
and a desert since all has gone
a cold heart is a dead heart
and it feels like i've been buried alive by love
If i should die before i wake
bring no one my soul to take
if i wake before i die,
rescue me with your smile,
If i should die before i wake
bring no one my soul to take
if i wake before i die,
rescue me with your smile
I've been buried alive by love
i've been buried alive by love
buried alive by love
i've been buried alive by love
i've been buried alive by love
i've been buried alive by love
