    Verse 1
    The 
    lies, 

    the 
    weight, 
    deceit, 
    decay 

    Verse 2
    The lies, 
    the 
    weight 

    It's clear 
    I 
    lost 
    my 
    way 

    Deceit, 
    decay 

    Decomposing 

    Verse 3

    I 
    thought 
    I was 
    an architect 
    but 

    I was 
    just 
    moving 
    dirt 

    Stacking 
    mud 
    over 
    malice 
    covered-up 
    forming 

    forming 
    nothing 
    but 
    a 
    pile 
    of 
    hurt 

    I hadn't 
    been 
    building 
    (building) 

    The 
    time 
    was 
    spent 
    digging 

    (digging) 

    Boring the barriers 
    that 
    kept 

    others 
    away 
    (away) 

    The 
    deeper 
    the walls 
    the 
    less 

    anyone 
    could hear (hear 
    me) fall 

    Verse 4
    So 
    now 
    I 
    know 
    there 

    is 
    no 
    one 
    else 
    to 
    blame 

    Verse 5
    Buried 
    alive 
    inside 
    of my 
    own 
    grave 

    And 
    there's 
    no 
    one 
    else 
    to 
    blame 

    Buried 
    alive 
    inside 
    of 
    my 
    own 
    grave 

    Inside 
    of 
    my 
    own 
    grave 

    Verse 6
    Beneath 
    my 
    lies 

    Verse 7

    Delusional 
    enough 
    to think 
    I'd 

    designed 
    something 
    great 

    Like 
    a giant 
    head
    stone 
    inscribed 

    to de
    scribe 
    my shameful 
    fate 

    I hadn't 
    been 
    building 
    (building) 

    The time 
    was 
    spent 
    digging 

    (digging) 

    An ugly 
    truth 
    from which 
    there 
    was 
    no 

    way 
    to 
    escape 
    (escape) 

    Nowhere 
    left to 
    hide and 
    then 
    finally 

    forced 
    to 
    face 
    what 
    I'd 
    become 

    Verse 8
    Buried 
    alive 
    inside 
    of 
    my 

    own 
    grave (My
    grave) 

    And 
    there's 
    no 
    one 
    else 
    to 
    blame 

    Buried 
    alive 
    inside 
    of 
    my 
    own 

    grave (My
    grave) 

    What I'd 
    become 

    Buried 
    alive 
    inside 
    of 
    my 
    own 
    grave 

    Verse 9

    Beneath 
    my 
    pride 
    crushing 
    me 

    Beneath 
    my lies 
    collapsing 

    But we 
    are 
    still 
    alive 

    We 
    are 
    still 
    alive 

    Verse 10
    Buried 
    alive 
    inside 
    of my 
    own 
    grave 

    And 
    there's 
    no one 
    else to blame 

    Buried 
    alive 
    inside 
    of 
    my 

    own 
    grave 

    My own grave 

    Verse 11
    Buried 
    alive 
    inside 
    of 
    my 
    own 
    grave 

    And 
    there's 
    no 
    one 
    else 
    to 
    blame 

    The lies 
    and 
    the 
    weight, 

    I 
    know 
    I 
    lost 
    my 
    way (my way) 

    What I'd 
    become 

    Buried 
    alive 
    inside 
    of my 
    own 

    grave (my
    grave) 

    And 
    there's 
    no 
    one 
    else 
    to 
    blame 

    Buried 
    alive, 
    buried 
    alive 

    Verse 12

    Finally 
    forced 
    to 
    face 
    what 
    I'd 
    become 

    What 
    I'd 
    become 
    (In my own 

    grave) 

    Buried (In my 
    own grave) 

    Alive

      Best Tuning App Ever

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
