Bury Me (Cinematic)

[Verse 1]

Woke up on the floor again, with a cheap T-shirt for a blanket

The aftertaste of yesterday is sticking on my tongue like a ticket

To a show I never bought, for a ride I didn’t want

Left my phone on silent, just to pretend that I forgot

[Pre-Chorus]

The glow of the city’s bleedin’ into my room at 4 A.M.

Another text that I’ll ignore, another reason to pretend

That I’m fine, that I’m over it, that I’m not stuck inside this head

With all the words I wanna say and all the things that I left unsaid

[Chorus]

Bury me, bury me, under all the people that I don’t like

Talkin’ to me, judging me, tellin’ me how to live my life

Yeah, they’re so pretty with their perfect little smiles

But the ghost of their opinions follows me for miles

So bury me, bury me, ’til there’s nothing left but me and the static

The hum of the silence, a beautiful chaotic

Melody to my own dark, twisted, tragic

Little show, yeah, it’s all so cinematic

[Verse 2]

Saw your face in a picture frame, a memory that’s getting faded

The colors bleedin’ out, just like the promises you made and

I’m not mad, I’m just tired of the emotional gymnastics

Of trying to make a fake-ass person feel like they’re fantastic

[Pre-Chorus]

The glow of the city’s bleedin’ into my room at 4 A.M.

Another text that I’ll ignore, another reason to pretend

That I’m fine, that I’m over it, that I’m not stuck inside this head

With all the words I wanna say and all the things that I left unsaid

[Chorus]

Bury me, bury me, under all the people that I don’t like

Talkin’ to me, judging me, tellin’ me how to live my life

Yeah, they’re so pretty with their perfect little smiles

But the ghost of their opinions follows me for miles

So bury me, bury me, ’til there’s nothing left but me and the static

The hum of the silence, a beautiful chaotic

Melody to my own dark, twisted, tragic

Little show, yeah, it’s all so cinematic

[Bridge]

And I’m so sick of the small talk, and the fake smiles

The “how have you been?” when you know it’s been a while

Since we were anything more than strangers with a past

And I’m just here to make sure this feelin’ doesn’t last

So bury me

[Guitar Solo, distorted and heavy with a driving rhythm]

[Outro]

Bury me, bury me, yeah

Bury me under all the people I don’t like

Bury me, bury me, ’cause it just feels right

Bury me, bury me, yeah, yeah, yeah

‘Cause it’s just me, and the static, and the night

[Music fades out with a final, echoing synth chord and a single bass note]
