Letting it slip through my grasp
Some things belong in the past
I can remember, how could I forget?
From embers to ashes, the secrets I’ve kept

Killing the fears that have lived in my head
Turning away from
The life that I’ve lead
‘cause sooner or later
This ends
I let go of all the regrets…

I bury my dead
And I walk away
Laying the past to rest
Burning the cold yesterdays
Of what I became
Like lambs to the slaughter
Until nothing’s left
I lay it to rest
I bury my dead

I bury
I bury
I bury my dead 

I bury
I bury
I bury my dead

I let go of what couldn’t last
Watched as it fell through the cracks
I severed the ties
That were blinding my eyes
Cut through the rope
That was binding my life

‘cause sooner or later
This ends
I’m letting it go

I bury
I bury my dead
And I walk away
Laying the past to rest
Burning the cold yesterdays
Of what I became
Like lambs to the slaughter
Until nothing’s left
I lay it to rest
I bury my dead

I bury
I bury
I bury my dead 

I bury
I bury
I bury my dead

Killing the fears that have lived in my head
Turning away from
The life that I’ve lead
Just you remember
It’s you you’re fighting for

Letting it slip through my grasp
Some things belong in the past
I can remember, how could I forget?
From embers to ashes, the secrets I’ve kept
‘cause sooner or later this ends
I’m letting it go

I bury
I bury my dead
And I walk away
Laying the past to rest
Burning the cold yesterdays
Of what I became
Like lambs to the slaughter
Until nothing’s left
I lay it to rest
I bury my dead

I bury
I bury
I bury my dead

I bury
I bury
I bury my dead

I bury
I bury
I bury my dead
