Time drags on slow Just another moment in this coffin I'm not wailing now But if I was, no one would hear it There is a pain to being dead Such a sick existence
I can feel myself rot More skin leaving these bones I want to break through this wooden box To crawl through the dirt and the roots Craving the brains of the living To try and ease the pain
But for now, here is where I'll lay Sinking more into the earth I shall hurt for a little while longer Till I get my chance to be above ground once more
This piece was inspired by the 80's cult film (and one of my favorites) Return of the Living Dead. A couple lines are very close to what is said in the movie by a zombie being interrogated.
