Burial Rite (Opener version)

V4

[Intro, Slow, eerie clean guitar fading into heavy distortion, an unsettling tension builds] I wake up in the same old haze, The weight of nothing pressing down again. A voice inside tells me to move, But what’s the point? I already lose. [Verse 1] I grab the shovel, drag it through the dirt, It’s just a habit, another day cursed. I dig for silence, I dig for peace, But I know damn well it’s out of reach. [Pre-Chorus] The ghosts still whisper, the doubts still scream, I bury them deep, but they still breathe. [Chorus] Digging my grave, but calling it hope, Filling the void, but losing control. Out of sight, out of mind, But it never lasts—I'm still confined. [Instrumental Interlude, Dissonant, chaotic riffing with pounding drums—fading into eerie, hollow echoes] [Verse 2] The deeper I go, the colder it gets, The weight of my past still crushing my chest. I tell myself it’s for the best, But I know I’m lying like all the rest. [Bridge] Beneath my feet, a grave I made, For all my demons, for all my shame. But no matter how deep I dig them down, They’ll always find their way back out. [Pre-Chorus] The ghosts still whisper, the doubts still scream, I bury them deep, but they still breathe. [Chorus] Digging my grave, but calling it hope, Filling the void, but losing control. Out of sight, out of mind, But it never lasts—I'm still confined. [Breakdown, Slow, crushing breakdown with guttural growls and relentless chugging] Six feet down, but I still hear them cry, No escape, no peace—no matter how I try. Buried deep, but they won’t stay dead, They claw their way back into my head. [Outro, Fading guitars, whispering vocals echoing in the distance] The dirt settles, the night is still, But I know they’re waiting, I know they will… Crawl back up, sink in my skin, And tomorrow… I dig again!
