Born In A Tank Lyrics - Candlemass - Candlemass

They buried me here in the winter 

To an iron box I checked in 

I've never heard birds or seen daylight 

And nothing will ever come in 

I'm happy to lie here in darkness 

Naked, safe, undisturbed 

Floating blind in water 

In my little world of dirt 

I live underground 

Born in a tank on the day I remember 

Buried alive, like a dog, late December 

I think there was a sound from a battle 

And once I heard somebody scream 

Today a knock on the door 

It was just another bad dream 

They want to keep me secure here 

From a world of chaos I'm safe 

I'm better off down in my small crate 

Protected by maggots and rats 

I live underground 

Born in a tank on the day I remember 

Buried alive, like a dog, late December 

I live underground 

Born in a tank, in the midst of nowhere 

Buried alive, like a dog 

I was dumped and left here 

They buried me here in the winter 

To an iron box I checked in 

I've never heard birds or seen daylight 

And nothing will ever come in 

Im happy to lie here in darkness 

Naked, safe, undisturbed 

Floating blind in water 

In my little world of dirt 

I live underground 

Born in a tank on the day I remember 

Buried alive, like a dog, late December 

I live underground 

Born in a tank in the midst of nowhere 

Buried alive, like a dog 

I was dumped and left here
