How do you translate this sentence "用力扒开土壤 掩埋掉落下的滚烫"? 用力扒开土壤 掩埋掉落下的滚烫 Recently I've encountered this sentence when trying to translate a chinese song lyrics. At first I'm quite sure that it does mean: "Dig deep into the ground for the buried inspiration that we lost ". Then I'm not so sure. Please tell me how to get this right.

If I were paranoid, I would imagine 扒开 dig out. (literally outing), 滚烫 homophone 滚开 both are in double "bold". It shows that it extremely dislikes someone. To bury someone in the soil. my personal view. :)
