Song | Buried Alive |
Artist | Direct Hit! |
Album | Brainless God |
He's got a carcass in the basement, | |
and it's high time he found a replacement | |
It'll be just like a first date, but better | |
It's the farthest that he's been from | |
a careful process for a quick completion, | |
cause the bomb's just a couple clicks from his suburb | |
So he doesn't have to please her, | |
just apply a kitchen towel soaked with ether | |
and sit her upright in the last car she'll ride in, | |
drag her inside bound with duct tape | |
under his arm, like a baby or a pound cake, | |
set the knives out, put the IV inside her | |
It’s gone on and on and on and on and on and on and on | |
But he's dried out his eyes, as he's buried alive | |
all the girls that he’s met every season | |
Keeps a book, photographs, his victims in tact | |
so he can have a memory of it all | |
But the world's bound to end in a minute or ten, | |
he knows routine's nothing but a shadow, | |
and pasted shots of his kills are pointless frills, oh no | |
Because the bomb’s just a couple clicks from his suburb | |
It's his last night, so he slows down, | |
takes a breath, doesn't have to sweat the cops now | |
But the practice is soon to leave him exhausted, | |
and when he wakes up she's above him, | |
saying "Baby, let's go out enjoy the sunset - | |
It's the last time we'll get to enjoy it, | |
and it's the farthest that we've been from | |
a careful process for a quick completion, | |
because the bomb's just a couple clicks from our suburb | |
It's not atrocious, we'll be sleeping, | |
and the universe of course will end up weeping | |
on the staircase in the corner. So, sorry." | |
So the carcass in the basement | |
became a whole lot more than a replacement | |
It became just like a first date, but better | |
So he dries out his eyes, as he buries alive, | |
this doomed world that has seen its last season | |
And the book, photographs, his victims in tact, | |
won't leave a single memory of it all | |
Cause the world sees the end in a minute or ten, | |
and the routine's just a fucking shadow | |
And all his shots of his kills were pointless frills, oh no |
