Riot - Buried Alive (Tell Tale Heart) Lyrics






I awoke in the darkness
A ringing in my ears
In the cold and the silence
Feels like I've slept for years

Voices in the distance
Someone speaks my name
The sound of tears and laughter
Am I dead or insane?

I'm calling, no one can hear me
I'm calling, you know where I must be

C'mon let me out
You've got to set me free
Just to even hear

Ashes to ashes
Is that what he said?
More familiar voices
Lies about the life that I had

I wanna speak that I hear though
A realisation arise
A shovel strikes the earth above
I'm being buried alive

I'm calling, no one can hear me
I'm calling, you know where I must be
Hello! You've got to set me free
Doesn't anybody hear me

I'm calling, no one can hear me
I'm calling, you know where I must be
C'mon let me out
You've got to set me free, hey...
C'mon let me out, c'mon!
You've got to set me free!

    Heavy Metal FOREVER!

  67. s.... ....

    Truly, this is the best album in the metal genre that I have heard in a very long time. I already had heard all the classics that everyone knew... they still stand strong in my heart, but it had been a long time since something that wasn't so well known really stood out to me. This album has massive riffs, spot-on sound, very strong individual performances, and is just something to remember.

  68. f.... ....

    RIOT the best band ever. Reale is a genius!!! thx mate 4 share it.

  69. I.... ....

    Where's the intro from?

  70. N.... .....

    just a ridiculous solo!!!!!!!! great song all together.......

  71. X.... ....

    does anyone know what the jazzy piece being played in the background at when he is dug up at 8:23 till the end is?
    i've heard it before, it's always bugged me that I can't find out what it is.
