Alter Bridge - Buried Alive Lyrics






I twist and turn
In the darkest space
Can't find my worth
As I numb the pain

Glass to the sky
With a blacktooth grin
This whiskey smile
Takes me down again

I'm cold and I'm so afraid
That I'm too weak and I can't change

[Chorus:]
I've been buried alive and
I don't want to be here anymore

Reached out a thousand times for
A hand to pull me from below

I've been buried alive in a world
Of constant sorrow

Reach down tonight and set me free...
Save tomorrow

Another shot
Slip into the haze
Another night
Soaked in my disgrace

Toast to the lie
I'll raise my glass and run
A wasted life
What have I become?

[Chorus]

Save tomorrow
Save tomorrow

Let me breathe again
Show me where I begin
To find the will to change
Before I lose everything

[Chorus]

Reach down tonight and set me free
And I will follow

    I twist and turn
    In the darkest space
    Can't find my worth
    As I numb the pain

    Glass to the sky
    With a black tooth grin
    This whiskey smile

    WERBUNG

    Takes me down again

    I'm cold and I'm so afraid
    That I'm too weak

    And I can't change
    I've been buried alive

    And I don't want
    To be here anymore

    Reached out
    A thousand times

    For a hand to
    Pull me from below


    I've been buried alive
    In a world of
    Constant sorrow
    Reached down tonight

    And set me free
    Save tomorrow
    Another shot
    Slip into the haze

    Another night
    Soaked in my disgrace

    Toast to the lie
    I'll raise my glass and run
    A wasted life
    What've I become?

    I've been buried alive
    And I don't want
    To be here anymore
    Reached out
    A thousand times
    For a hand to
    Pull me from below
    I've been buried alive
    In a world of
    Constant sorrow
    Reached out tonight
    And set me free
    Save tomorrow
    (Save tomorrow
    Save tomorrow)
    -Solo-
    Let me breathe again
    And show me where I begin
    (Where I begin)
    To find a will to change
    Before I lose everything
    (Before I lose everything)
    I've been buried alive
    And I don't want
    To be here anymore
    Reached out
    A thousand times
    For a hand to
    Pull me from below
    I've been buried alive
    In a world of
    Constant sorrow
    Reached out tonight
    And set me free
    And I will follow
    I've been buried alive
    I've been buried alive
    I've been buried alive

  5. Y.... E....

  10. s.... p....

    I love dis song I love it till death

  11. p.... Q....

    if you haven't been there you don't know, admitting you need help takes reel strength.

  12. D.... p....

    2018 anyone?

    D.... p....

  13. S.... B....

    This song is definitely top 10 fav song on my list

  14. A.... W....

    Still love this song.

  15. P.... M....

    The guys in Creed found one hell of a singer that's for sure!

    P.... M....

    Brett Griggs I feel like Creed would’ve been way better had Scott Stapp not been so controlling. I could tell that Mark Tremonti had more control when they got back together because of the sound on Full Circle. Way heavier and darker sound

    P.... M....

    CyanideSurprise What do Alter Bridge have to do with Creed?
    Are you fucking retarded?!

    P.... M....

    @iwtmltyb well if a few members are from creed it has a lil bit to do with it

    P.... M....

    DäMNeOKAiN Are you simple?
    My comment was sarcastic and directed towards the guy who asked what Creed had to do with Alter Bridge!
    *rolls eyes*

    P.... M....

    @iwtmltyb nope but it has alil bit 2 do with it
    2be honest it is hard 2 see if someone is beeing sarcastic if it is typed on the internet
    2 many stupid people
    im not the biggest fan but i can recognize the talent if i see it
    and this one is great
    so we both should stay over my misstake and bang 2 this track

  16. s.... ....

    Such a sick tune <3 <3

  17. A.... R....

    caralho essa intro é fooooda

    A.... R....

  22. d.... d....

    hey guys, are there any other songs just as good as this? thanks!.

    d.... d....

    All the other Alter Bridge songs, maybe some songs of Slash? Apocalyptic Love ( the album and the song ) or
    Sacred Mother Tongue with Andy James ( awesome guitarist ) but personally i only like there latest album called Out of the Darkness.
    just some suggestions :)

    d.... d....

    this entire album is amazing

    d.... d....

    Show me a sign? All hope is gone? Rise Today?

    d.... d....

    peace is broken

  23. N.... ....

    what a douchebag! how dare he

  24. Z.... ....

    best Alter Bridge' song

  25. L.... ....

    Hmm... then I'll have to have a discussion with my younger sister... -.- My suggestions are full of stupid stuff...

    L.... ....

    Well unlike you...your younger sister has good taste. There's not really a point in posting that.

  26. R.... ....

    You had to listened him. I have only Alter Bridge.

  27. P.... ....

    Perhaps they want him buried alive. :D

    P.... ....

    hahha lol
    :D

  28. �.... �....

    Like for using Faramir on your profil.

  29. p.... ....

    what i think when i listen to it also! :D

  30. E.... S....

    Alter Bridge sé loko o bandinha que destrói !

  31. j.... c....

    when i am older this is going to be my wwe theme

    j.... c....

    So, did you succeed?

  32. E.... Z....

    why do we talk about justin bieber in the comments? Who the f*ck is justin bieber?

  33. M.... A....

    One of the most complete songs I've heard in a long time and that chorus riff is just perfect.

  34. M.... M....

    Have you read Scott Stapp's book yet? There is some interesting facts in there.

  35. S.... P....

    He wasn't replaced. The remaining members just wanted to start another band. Creed is amazing and Scott Stapp is amazing.

  36. D.... ....

    Didn't know Justin Bieber had 19 Youtube accounts.

  37. J.... W....

    Mercyful Fate version is the all time best

  38. M.... G....

    good song, but buried alive by avenged sevenfold is better, not hating on these guys

    M.... G....

    Matt G.R. That's your opinion. Don't try to pass it off as fact.

    M.... G....

    Matt G.R. No. It isn’t.
    Avenged are OK, but hugely overrated.

  39. T.... G....

    One of the most bad ass songs of all time..

  40. D.... S....

    Alter Bridge > Creed, but I think everyone already knew this.

    D.... S....

    Dylan Smarr I always considered Creed the more toned down band, while Alter Bridge was the guitar blazing band. similar sounds in guitar work but totally different in direction.

  41. T.... C....

    FUCK! I love this god damn fucking song!

  42. k.... ....

    one kick-ass intro

  43. M.... H....

    That is fucking Awesome...They are great..Mark Tremonti and Miles Kennedy..

  44. A.... C....

    Dime reference at 0:50

    Thanks!! Love this song!

  45. B.... ....

    Love the opening riffs, great song

  46. d.... ....

  47. j.... d....

    LIKE A BLACKBIRD \,,\
