The Living Dead

     

The living dead are spread through many a tribe
      You’ve seen them friend
      I’ve been them
      Even half alive
      Is a lot
      Convinced as we are of what we are not
     
Living the lie
      Believing the cover
      Story that’s kept them
      (As much as can be allowed)
      Alive

      Embracing the part
      Lost in the act
      I love most the scene
      Where the dead come back to life

      I don’t get that too often

      That’s been the terror
      That’s been the dream
      What keeps the heart alive
      Will make it beat out it’s brains
      Upon the sands of the wasted years
      The futile purposes, the bottom feeding desires
      Flesh and all its demons
      Mind and all it’s lies
      Slumbering spirit  
      Numbing sighs
      Of regret amidst
      Remembrance

      Then the new day suns rises
      The living and the dead
      (Closer now than ever)
      Leering, lurch to blur each taunting dream
      And claw the sight from the sacred dawn
