Well, I don′t want to be caught

In a tidal wave

And everything's for naughtIs what the old folks say

Well, now I find I′m distraught

I'm closer to my grave

And now I'm gonna come short

Another goddamn day

When you throw my feelings on the fire

I can′t keep this down

And I feel like I won′t be afraid

When I'm buried in the sand

Well, now I found myself fraught

And I am filled with rage

Another bottle′s been bought

To help me waste away

I think these chains are too taut

They're cutting my ribcage

And if I give this more thought

I think I′ve gone astray

When you throw my feelings on the fire

I can't keep this down

And I feel like I won′t be afraid

When I'm buried in the sand

When I'm buried in the sand

When I′m buried in the sand

When I′m buried in the sand

When you throw my feelings on the fire

I can't keep this down

And I feel like I won′t be afraid

When I'm buried in the sand

Throw my feelings on the fire

I can′t keep this down

And I feel like I won't be afraid

When I′m buried in the sand
