I’ve been standing here for days Same spot where you last saw me And I wonder if you’d notice That I haven’t really moved My feet are getting heavy Sinking slow into the ground And every word I should’ve said Has settled deep without a sound And I don’t wanna stay here But I don’t know how to leave So cover me in concrete Let it rise up to my knees ‘Til I can’t pretend I’m ever gonna leave Just bury me in concrete If this is who I’m gonna be At least I’ll have a reason For the man I couldn't be There’s a version of myself That I keep building in my head But every time I try to be him I just freeze up instead You can see it in my eyes How the pressure’s getting strong All the things I never did Been piling up for way too long And I don’t wanna be this But I don’t know how to be So cover me in concrete Let it rise up to my knees ‘Til I can’t pretend I’m ever gonna leave Just bury me in concrete If this is who I’m gonna be At least I’ll have a reason For the man I couldn't be And maybe you’d understand If you could feel how thick the air gets When I try to take a step Maybe then you’d see Why I keep coming back To this same damned place Where everything went black And I just want you to see Why I can’t break free So cover me in concrete Let it rise up to my knees ‘Til I can’t pretend I’m ever gonna leave Just bury me in concrete If this is who I’m gonna be At least I’ll have a reason For the man I couldn't be So cover me in concrete Let it harden where I am I know that you’ll never understand Just bury me in concrete ‘Til I stop asking to be free At least then you’ll know exactly where to find me Yeah, you’ll know where to find me Right here in the concrete Right where you left me Right here…
