Buried Alive

Black suite, and a black tie
Both are signs, that say goodbye

Why did you leave?
So many people miss you, and they want you back
Does that mean nothing to you?
Maybe it's better that your gone

It's just me staring at this casket
Tears of regret, fear and anger
Warm rain
Perhaps God cries as well today

Was it society that killed this part of me?
The cloak of kindness I wore is gone
Dead
Stripped from my righteous back
Only to be put in a grave

A part of me died today
It was buried deep within my heart
Instead of flowers in the casket
Joy was thrown, along with love
Laughter tossed, mixed with smiles

Welcome to my one man funeral
I'm the only one who showed
Maybe it's for the best
I'm the only one who knew me
