Buried Alive Lyrics
Of A Certain City In The Sea
As I Walk The Valley Of Unrest
Behind This Mask Of Crimson Death
And A Most Dire Predicament
Murders In The Rue Morgue
Silence And Shadow's What I Adore
The Thought Of My Premature Burial
Inside This Oblong Box I Lie
With The Hopes I'll Be Buried Alive
Will Someday Cause This House To Fall
The Power Of Words Left Unsaid
As I Join The Spirits Of The Dead
The Thought Of My Premature Burial
Inside This Oblong Box I Lie
With The Hopes I'll Be Buried Alive
Washed Up
Bricked Up
Bedlam
Redrum
Misled
Bloodshed
Beats For
Lenore
Nevermore
The Thought Of My Premature Burial
Inside This Oblong Box I Lie
With The Hopes I'll Be Buried Alive
oh and also, i forgot to add before : "will someday cause this house to fall" is the fall of the house of usher.
Haha, I like this, it's a play on Poes works! Awesome!
It IS in fact a play off Edgar allen poe. Not only is it a killer song but the video for it is pure genius and is extremely amazing... I love this band with all my ill beating heart :D
krista
Once people hear them, im sure theres going to be TONS more comments.. because this band is insanely great.
Such grim thoughts. A lively outlook on death.
So very entertaining.
I'm already surprised that they are this popular... Kind of depressing...
i lovvve this song.
does anyone know what they're saying at the beginning of the song. i know the last part of it came out of "the pit and the pendulum" by poe, but where did the rest come from?
lolol. Today in science after I was done with this easy ass test, I was writing down the lyrics of this song by memory and then opened my Edgar Allan Poe and was like, "holy shit I can't believe I didn't notice it sooner." I'm slowww.
The first part is from H.P. Lovecraft, referring to Mighty Cthulhu who is Dead but forever dreaming in his city beneath the waves R'lyeh. Im an avid reader of Lovecraft as well as Poe, so this song is awesome, and I love this band! Im a big fan of almost everything Horror related...=)
actually, "A Dream Within a Dream" and "The City and the Sea" are both poems written by Poe. C: the entire song is filled with allusions to Poe's works, I love it.
**"The City IN the Sea," whoops.
