"Buried Alive By Love (Live At Finnvox Studios)" lyrics - HIM

Again, the burden of losing
Rests upon my shoulders
And its weight seems unbearable
"Your tomb is where your heart is"
I should have told her
But within me hid a secret so terrible

[Pre-Chorus:]
To cry is to know that you're alive
But my river of tears has run dry
I never wanted to fool you, no
But a cold heart is a dead heart
And it feels like I've been buried alive by love

[Chorus:]
If I should die before I wake
Pray no one my soul to take
And if I wake before I die
Rescue me with your smile

The kiss of vanity blessed me with
A spiritual murder
And fed the gods of war insatiable
"Your home is where the dark is"
I should have told her
And embraced the fire indestructible

[Pre-Chorus:]
To die is to know that you're alive
And my river of blood won't run dry
I never wanted to lose you, no
But a cold heart is a dead heart
And it feels like I've been buried alive by love

[Chorus:]
If I should die before I wake
Pray no one my soul to take
And if I wake before I die
Rescue me with your smile

[Pre-Chorus:]
Oh, it seems to cry is to know that you're alive
But my river of tears has run dry
I never wanted to fool you, no
But a cold heart is a dead heart
And a deserted soul is gone
A cold heart is a dead heart
And it feels like I've been buried alive by love

[Chorus:]
If I should die before I wake
Pray no one my soul to take
And if I wake before I die
Rescue me with your smile

[Outro:]
I've been buried alive by love
Been buried alive by love
