Buried

didn't need a shovel
my heart is buried deep
no light shows through this darkness
or the walls that are so steep
 
didn't see it coming
my head was in the clouds
safe from any disasters
the signs apparent now
 
didn't feel the earth drop
as my world started in this spin
forgot to leave a safety net
or something in which to depend
 
didn't recognize the signs
although I'd seem them once before
should of heard my mind click
when you left and closed the door
 
didn't get any closure
didn't want to stop my mind
when you kissed me last goodbye
it was for the last time
