Dream Theater "Buried"

Another sequence in the Dream Theater series about being Buried Alive!

The curtain falls

Eyes grow dim

Sleep now overtakes me

As the next sequence begins

I awake to darkness

Little room to move around

Arms and hands are free

Legs seem to be bound

Seems to be a wood box

Not much room to spare

I'm not alone in here

A scorpion intertwined in my hair

How did I get here?

Will I get free?

Who trapped me in here?

Why target me?

My breathing has slowed

The oxygen is almost out

Being saved is not in the cards

Of that I have only doubt

Box is starting to crumble

Dirt starts to fill the inside

Only minutes left to live

I really don't want to die

As my consciousness fades

Give my family my love

My form will fade away

I'll watch from the starlit skies above

My heart gives its last beat

A ringing from my phone

I'm jolted awake in my bed

Back where I've always known

My chest still tightens with dread

Just another vivid dream

One thing about these sequences

Nothing is as it seems
