I wish that I didn't have to see A confidant as an enemy
Counting lies and the lines you cross Helplessly, I can only watch
Dodging words as they ricochet Honesty that'll never pay
Your convictions, I believe Like an apparition haunting me
Now the truth is a fallen chain Holding my conscience to the flame
Covered up, but still I know The secret of the life you're guilty of
A smoking gun is what I've found The dirt I have on you is a ground
Ooh, I'm buried under
Trying to tread through sinking sand But when you're awake, you know I can't stand
What I thought was meant to be Is a broken heart weighing down on me
The truth is a fallen chain Holding my conscience to the flame
Covered up, but still I know The secret of the life you're guilty of
A smoking gun is what I've found The dirt I have on you is a ground
Ooh, I'm buried under
Yeah, I'm buried under
Ooh, I'm buried under
Can you fall for the wings of a dove When the clever wolf is the one you love?
Now the truth is a fallen chain Holding my conscience to the flame
Covered up, but still I know The secret of the life you're guilty of
A smoking gun is what I've found The dirt I have on you is a ground
Ooh, I'm buried under
Ooh, I'm buried under
Wish that I didn't have to see A confidant as an enemy
