Mastodon – Oblivion Lyrics 16 years ago
The line about burrowing a hole is literal. In the article he says that he was tripping on acid 2 weeks after her death and tried digging her out of the grave with his bare hands.

Mastodon – Oblivion Lyrics 16 years ago
Listening to this song, I have a newfound respect for Dailor. This Song not only depicts the beginning of the story, but it also reflects A very personal side of Dailor.
The line:
"I tried to Burrow a hole Into the Ground,
Breaking all the fingers and the nails from my hand"
Is a prime example

The March issue of Revolver has an article in which Brann more or less explains the signifigance of it.
It's extremely interesting and gives the song so much more meaning and importance.

Brann, i love you and your humping unicorn shirt.
