as i lay dying - my own grave (re-interpretation) lyrics

[intro: tim lambesis]
the lies, the weight
it’s clear i lost my way
deceit, decay
decomposing

[verse 1: tim lambesis (spoken), tim lambesis, josh gilbert]
i thought i was an architect
but i was just moving dirt
stacking mud over malice, covered+up forming
nothing but a pile of hurt
i hadn’t been building (building)
the time was spent digging (digging)
boring the barriers that kept others away (away)
the deeper the walls, the less anyone could hear, (hear me) fall

[pre+chorus: tim lambesis]
so now i know
there is no one else to blame

[chorus 1: josh gilbert, tim lambesis]
buried alive inside of my own grave
and there’s no one else to blame
buried alive inside of my own grave
inside of my own grave
[verse 2: tim lambesis (spoken), tim lambesis, josh gilbert]
beneath my lies
delusional enough to think
i’d designed something great
like a giant headstone inscribed
to describe my shameful fate
i hadn’t been building (building)
the time was spent digging (digging)
an ugly truth from which there was no way to escape (escape)
nowhere left to hide and then finally forced to face what i’d become

[chorus 2: josh gilbert w/ tim lambesis]
buried alive inside of my own grave
and there’s no one else to blame
buried alive inside of my own grave
what i’d become
buried alive inside of my own grave

[post+chorus: tim lambesis]
beneath my pride crushing me
beneath my lies collapsing
but we are still alive
we are still alive

[bridge: josh gilbert]
buried alive inside of my own grave
and there’s no one else to blame
buried alive inside of my own grave
my own grave
[chorus 3: josh gilbert & tim lambesis, both]
buried alive inside of my own grave
and there’s no one else to blame
the lies and the weight, i know i lost my way (my way)
what i’d become
buried alive inside of my own grave (my grave)
and there’s no one else to blame
buried alive, buried alive

[outro: tim lambesis (spoken)]
finally forced to face what i’d become
