Six Feet Under

I'm six feet under, 

with no one to blame but myself

I should have known,

that life would be this hard

Six feet under, 

With no one to hold my bleeding heart


The dirt that showers down on me

my stress, my worries,

pains and fears

Six feet under, 

with only the dirt to dry my tears


Here I hide, underneath my mask 

Hiding everything but my smile

while sitting underground about a mile



I'm six feet under,

with no one to blame but myself

I should have known,

that life would be this hard

Six feet under,

With no one to hold my bleeding heart


A rope thrown down my my angel

to drag me out of revelation

a rope to save me from this pit I've dug

out of desperation


Pains, fears

only dirt to dry my tears

Stress, moans 

the only things I've ever known\


Fighting the battles

of those that I trust

never thought I'd be the one to end up in the dust

face down, heart torn

Fake masks, battle worn


I'm six feet under,

with no one to blame but myself

I should have known

the grave is dug by my hands alone

Six feet under,

With only the dirt to call my home

Not my best, but there is a lot of thoughts woven in to it. It was originally written as a song, but I don't think it would make a very good one.  I'd love to hear your thoughts on this piece.
