Burial or interment is the ritual act of placing a dead person or animal, sometimes with objects, into the ground. This is accomplished by excavating a pit or trench, placing the deceased and objects in it, and covering it over. Humans have been burying their dead for at least 100,000 years. Burial is often seen as indicating respect for the dead. It has been used to prevent the odor of decay, to give family members closure and prevent them from witnessing the decomposition of their loved ones, and in many cultures it has been seen as a necessary step for the deceased to enter the afterlife or to give back to the cycle of life.
Methods of burial may be heavily ritualized and can include natural burial (sometimes called "green burial");embalming or mummification; the use of containers for the dead such as a shrouds, caskets, grave liners, and burial vaults all of which can retard decomposition of the body. Sometimes objects or grave goods are buried with the body, which may be dressed in fancy or ceremonial garb. Depending on the culture, the way the body is positioned may have great significance.
I lay here beside you, just thinkin? all night
I believe that tomorrow would make things all right
I still tell you I love you, that you?re forever mine
It makes you feel good and it buys me some time
If I told you I needed you
But I sent you away
I?ve been calling it love 'cause I want you to stay
Calling it love, [Incomprehensible]
Calling it love 'cause I?m too scared to say
Let?s call it a day
I never questioned my feelings before
I felt, but I felt there was it, nothin? more
But I can?t keep denying the truth in my heart
Ooh, the touching and talking but we?re oceans apart
If I told you I needed you
But I sent you away
I?ve been calling it love 'cause I want you to stay
Calling it love, [Incomprehensible]
Calling it love 'cause I?m too scared to say
Let?s call it a day
I?ve been spending my life
Thinking you?re the one
Now I?m holding my lies
And the damage is done
And if I told you I needed you
But I sent you away
I?ve been calling it love 'cause I want you to stay
Calling it love, [Incomprehensible]
Calling it love 'cause I?m too scared to say
Let?s call it a day
I?ve been calling it love 'cause I want u to stay
Calling it love, [Incomprehensible]
Calling it love 'cause I?m too scared to say
Let?s call it a day
I?ve been calling it love
