Burnin' Alive
(Various Lazy)
I died, I died, can you see it in my eyes
My hands are cold, I ain’t got no pulse, My heart no longer tries
Your staring at a ghost my friend, Don’t worry this is not your end
I just look a little pale, Cause I died.
I’ve been shot, I’ve been hung, I’ve been drowned out in the sound
I fell a hundred and thirty feet, Hell it was days for I was found
I’ve been starved, I’ve been stabbed, I’ve been buried three feet down.
Something tells me I better get out of this town.
The state troopers tracked me down for what they called a crime
I was pulling for my license when they shot me seven times
When the smoke had finally cleared the air there was blood spilled on the ground
But my body, It was nowhere to be found.
I was tied up to a horse and I was thrown into the dirt
I was drug for 40 miles before my body start to hurt
So I guess I had some time as my body twist and turned
To think about the way this fire burned.
Well it burned so hot it burned clean through the floor where I had stood
When the walls caved in I tumbled down, I knew this wasn’t good
As I looked around the room I knew no one would survive
Cause we were all burnin’ alive. Yeah we were all burnin’ alive.
I was poisoned back in ninety nine. Mmm That was a first
Well it tasted sweet as candy, seemed to cure my thirst
As I opened up my mind my eyes began to spin
And I wondered just where the hell I’d been
About the time I came around, and I had found my keys
Well a baseball bat came swinging round and knocked me to my knees
If I could just see daylight, well I could break this trance
Lord I’m asking you just give me one more chance
Lord all I need is one more chance.
Now I bet that you all think I’ve gone south and lost my mind
Well the dead is face to face with you is there any other kind
Oh I died right here, my fate is clear and I’m walking towards the light
Oh she’s gone, Left me standing here tonight.
I died, I died, can’t you see it in my eyes
My hands are cold, I ain’t got no pulse, My heart no longer tries
Your staring at a ghost my friend, Don’t worry this is not your end
I just look a little pale, Cause I died.
