Bury It Down

 
             Am 
They told me boys dont cry 
       F             C 
So I clenched my fist 
               Am 
Put on that stone-cold look 
      F                   C 
Like hurt dont even exist 

        Am 
Took the blame, took the fall 
          G 
Drank it deep and felt it all 
Am               G           F 
Every wound Id never let show 
     Am                    G         F 
Just nod and say, Thats how it goes 
 

 
       C                   G 
So I bury it down, in a bottle of flame 
Am               F 
Hide the wreck behind my name 
C               G 
If I break, theyll say Im weak 
   Am                  F 
So I pretend I dont feel a thing 
             G                  Am        F 
But its screaming out, the silence inside 
   G            Am          F 
A storm thatI just cant hide 
              Am 
So I bury it down 
 

 
             Am           F                    C 
I said Im numb and cold, he said I dont care 
          Am       F                 C 
But I cannot see what is buried there 
        Am 
All these ghosts that never die 
            G 
And all the times I never cried 

       Am          G            F 
(You dont...you don't have to bleed alone) 
      Am              G          F 
(You dont have to break in stone) 
 

 
       C                   G 
So I bury it down, in a bottle of flame 
Am               F 
Hide the wreck behind my name 
C               G 
If I break, theyll say Im weak 
   Am                  F 
So I pretend I dont feel a thing 
             G                  Am        F 
But its screaming out, the silence inside 
   G            Am          F 
A storm thatI just cant hide 
              Am 
So I bury it down 

Bury it down 

Bury it down 
 

 
         Am 
I saw his name carved in stone 
          G 
Another brother fades to bone 
      Am       G          F 
Never knew he hurt like me 
           Am        G         F 
Guess he buried it down too deep 




        C               G 
So I bury it down, but not anymore 
  Am                       F 
Im done locking up this war 
   C                   G 
Im bleeding out and speaking loud 
  Am                  F 
No more hiding in the crowd 
        G             Am    F 
Let it burn, let the anger cry 
          G       Am           F 
Scream it out, and kill that pride 
                Am 
And I'll bury it down
