Buried Alive Lyrics
nd them, and the water rose so quick and cold, an unlikely place to dr
own.
and this'll be the day I didn't kiss my wife goodbye, take care of my
family I'm buried alive
and asked the Lord to open his arms for the nine souls he'd receive
and prayed there for miracle some 24 stories down.
I think it's talking about the hard life the workers had back in the day. Their jobs were rwally difficult and sometimes deadly. It's about 9 guys getting trapped in a mine
It's about a mining accident in 2002, all of the men survived!
Beautiful Sad song of the harsh life of coal miners. Working Class always has to pay, just listen to "The Workers Song"
During this recent mining accident in WV, This song kept on playing in my mind and everytime I turned on the news I sang "They latched themselves together so in death they might be found prayed there for miracle some 24 stories down."
I hear that. Even if the outcome was different, the message is the same. It wouldn't surprise me if DKM came out with a tribute song for this recent event.
I hummed this during the news and my three friend sjust stared at me till I actaully sang the whole thing.
