Buried Myself Alive Lyrics

you almost always pick the best time
to drop the worst lines
you almost made me cry again this time
another false alarm, red flashing lights
well this time, i'm not going to watch myself die

i think i made it a game to play your game
and let myself cry
i buried myself alive on the inside
so i could shut you out
and let you go away for a long time

i guess it's okay i puked the day away
i guess it's better you trapped yourself in your own way
and if you want me back
you're gonna have to ask

i think the chain broke away and i felt at the day
that i had my own time
i took advantage of myself and felt fine
but it was worth the night
i caught an early flight and i made it home

i guess it's okay i puked the day away
i guess it's better you trapped yourself in your own way
and if you want me back
you're gonna have to ask
nicer than that
nicer than that

with my foot on your neck
i finally have you
right where i want you

i guess it's okay i puked the day away
i guess it's better you trapped yourself in your own way
and if you want me back
you're gonna have to ask
nicer than that
nicer than that

and if you want me back you're gonna have to ask
nicer than that.. nicer

i kinda agree with opheliadipity on what the song means... this is my interpretation just cuz its what happened to me and it makes sense... the girl broke up with him and he was sad at first but then realized its stupid to be sad because its all happened before and this time he's "not gunna watch himself die" so he finally gets over her and she wants him back and this is just how he knew it would turn out ("i finally have you right where i want you") where she would be wanting him back and the puking is when they broke up and he got real drunk and puked all the next day and how she kinda fucked herself over and he's not gunna come back to her that easily even though he wants to he knows he shouldnt.. yeah well thats my interpretation buts its prolly all wrong

I love the chorus:

"I guess it's okay i puked the day away I guess it's better you trapped yourself in your own way And if you want me back You're gonna have to ask Nicer than that."

I just find a lot of emotion in the chorus, and it gives me chills everytime I hear it.

One of my all time favorite songs by The Used. The lyrics are so relatable especially when he says 'I buried myself alive on the inside' It's a great song, very dark and angst like. I love it!

Awesome, my favorite song of them. This takes me back to the early years of college and how alone I felt despite that I had all of my close friends...I remember just riding on the train, with this song blasting in my ears and soaking in his words and screams--it made me feel alive and not so sad.

This is one of my favorite slower songs by them! Along with tracks that most of you may not have heard yet. When this CD comes out anyone who likes these songs should check it out, its amazing.

I'm pretty sure the lyric "I guess it's okay of you to stay away" should be "I guess it's okay i puked the day away"
