Calling all the walking dead All the ones who’ve lost their hearts Who’ve learned to fill their ribcage With love’s broken scraps and parts All the ones who’ve drained their faith Who’ve spent years chasing hope Who’ve lived in piercing sorrow But have somehow learned to cope
For years you’ve been decaying Wishing anyone could see You’ve pondered giving up But something just won’t leave you be
Because you’re the walking dead You refused to meet the grave You’ve managed to escape your fate You’ve chosen to be brave Of all the ones you’ve found a way To breathe by pure resolve You’ve fought a war with death and Against all the odds evolved
It’s hard to fathom giving up You almost don’t know how And though you miss your heartbeat You’ve fought too hard to give up now
So calling all the walking dead Who have won this war before And calling all the walking dead Who will cheat death once more Death wails across the battlefield And begs you to give in But you’re the walking dead And you know that you can win
