Went from a glass to a bottle
Always drinkin’ to the bottom
Wine turned to hard liquor
And life’s always the trigger
Alcohol is the gun to my head
Just without the bloodshed
Yet, it makes me feel alive
And dead at the same time
It’s the medicine for the moment
When all your bones feel broken
I’m a zombie in the mirror
And my body’s just a figure
Mindlessly walking through life
Trying to avoid sunlight
With thoughts no longer clear
Because the apocalypse is near
And I’m a lifeless body
Turned into a zombie
A reawakened corpse, instead
And I’m just walking the dead
Of course, I feed on deadly grapes and grains
Slowly going insane
A shot of vodka to my brain
Soaking in my veins
And I’m not remembering my name
Champagne for the pain
For a mind so constrained
Just waiting to be slain
I’m a zombie in the mirror
And my body’s just a figure
Mindlessly walking through life
Trying to avoid sunlight
With thoughts no longer clear
Because the apocalypse is near
And I’m a lifeless body
Turned into a zombie
A reawakened corpse, instead
And I’m just walking the dead
You can’t wake me up
In a foggy haze, I’m stuck
Thoughts can’t get out of the maize
Behind my lifeless gaze
Thinking backwards,
All my bones feel knackered
Stab my heart with a dagger
Because
I’m already a lifeless body
Turned into a zombie
A reawakened corpse, instead
And I’m just walking the dead
With thoughts no longer clear
Because the apocalypse is near
And I’m a zombie in the mirror
And my body’s just a figure
Mindlessly walking through life
Trying to avoid sunlight
