[Verse 1]
[Em]Again, the burde[C]n of living
[Em]rests upon [C]my shoulders
[Em]And its weig[C]ht seems unbearable[Em][C]
[Em]"Your tomb is wher[C]e your heart is"
[Em]I should hav[C]e told her
[Em]But within me hid[C]
a secret so [Em]ter [C]rible

[Pre-chorus 1]
To [Am]cry is to know that you're al[Em]ive
But my [Am]riv er of tears has run d[Em]ry
I [Am]nev er wanted to f[Em]ool you, no
But a [D]cold heart is a dead heart
And it feels like I've been

[Chorus 1]
Buried alive by love
[C]If I should die before I wake
Pray no one my soul to [Em]take[G][D]
[C]If I wake before I die[D]
Rescue me with your [Em]smile[D][G]

Pray no one my soul to [Em]take[G][D]
[C]If I wake before I die[D]

[Em]The kiss of vani[C]ty blessed me
[Em]With a spiritu[C]al murder
[Em]And fed the gods[C] of war insa t[Em]iable[C]
[Em]"Your home is wher[C]e the dark is"
[Em]I should hav[C]e told her
[Em]And embraced the fire[C]
inde[Em]structible[C]

[Pre-chorus 2]
To [Am]die is to know that you're al[Em]ive
And my [Am]riv er of blood won't run d[Em]ry

But a [D]cold heart is a dead heart
And it feels like I've been

Pray no one my soul to [Em]take[G][D]
[C]If I wake before I die[D]

Oh- oh, they say to [Am]cry

But my [Am]riv er of tears has run d[Em]ry

A [D]cold heart is a dead heart
