A confident as an enemy
Common lies and the line you cross
Helplessly I can only watch
Imagine words as they ricochet
Honesty that will never pay
Your convictions I believe
Like an apparition haunting me
Now The truth is a ball and chain
Holdin' my conscious to the flame
Covered up but still i know
The secret of a life you're guilty of
The smoking gun is what I found
The dirt I have on you is the ground
I'm buried under
Try to tread through sink and sand,
In your way, you know i can't stand
What I thought was meant to be,
Is a broken heart weighing over me
The truth is a ball and chain
Holdin' my conscious to the flame
Covered up but still i know
The secret of a life you're guilty of
The smoking gun is what I found
The dirt I have on you is the ground
I'm buried under
Yeah, I'm buried under
Oh, I'm buried under
Can you fall for the wing of a dove,
When the clever wolf is the one you love
Now the truth is a ball and chain
Holdin' my conscious to the flame
Covered up but still i know
The secret of a life you're guilty of
The smoking gun is what I found
The dirt I have on you is the ground
I'm buried under
Ooh, I'm buried under
Wish that i didn't have to see
A confident as an enemy
