Well, now my legs are tied so that I can't walk
And my mouth is gagged so I can't talk
Some guys had taken me by storm, I got kicked around
My clothes got torn
And now I'm bound tight, I'm dismayed
I'm layin' in a shallow grave
I began to understand
This was part of their kidnap plan

Down here I could smother, under a wooden cover
I'm buried alive, buried alive.
Shallow breaths I'm takin', I hope I'm not forsakin'
And I'm buried alive, buried alive
Ah, ah, ah, ah, buried alive, buried alive
Ah, ah, ah, ah, buried alive

Well now, I'll breathe slow so I won't die
No I don't want to use up my air supply
I got somethin' crawlin' in my shoes
And these ropes around me just won't come loose
You know I'm bound tight, and I pray
I'll live to see another day
Wonder how much they'll demand
To send me back home to my clan

Down here I could smother, under a wooden cover
I'm buried alive, buried alive.
I'm so scared I'm shakin', I hope I'm not forsakin'
And I'm buried alive, buried alive
Ah, ah, ah, ah, buried alive, buried alive
Ah, ah, ah, ah, buried alive

Don't like it down here, somebody help me
Somebody help me, yeah
I need some fresh air, somebody help me
Somebody help me, yeah, buried alive

Well, now I'm all tied up layin' on my back
In this wooden box it's all bitch black
I'm so scared and so forlorn
As the ants crawl on me in a swarm
And I've bee bound tight, And I pray
That I will see the light of day
I'm feeling just like a clam
I hope they soon find where I am

Down here I could smother, under a wooden cover
I'm buried alive, buried alive.
Shallow breaths I'm takin', I hope I'm not forsakin'
And I'm buried alive, buried alive
Ah, ah, ah, ah, buried alive, buried alive
Ah, ah, ah, ah, buried alive

Ain't goin' nowhere. somebody help me
Somebody help me, yeah
I'm lost in despair, somebody help me, yeah
I'm buried alive
