Lying motionless, pretending to be, As dead as the bodies, surrounding me, Covered in blood, bits of dead skin, Masking my aroma, as they close in, ---- Dragging of feet, hearing their groans, A chorus of dead, no longer alone, Clutching tight, the axe in my hand, Looking for flesh, around me they stand, ---- Smelling the air, one turn's his head, Breathing deeply, he can tell I’m not dead, Rage fills my body, a fight to the death, Swinging my axe, with every breath, ---- Cracking of skulls, I fight through the mist, A figure remains, the one that I missed, Anger turns to tears, my beautiful bride, Killed by them all, now a Zombie resides, ---- My arm lowers, I beg her to leave, Closer she comes, I fall to my knees, She reaches out, as her eyes bulge red, I scream out as I.... ....put an axe to her head.

The Corpse Bride
Lying motionless, pretending to be, As dead as the bodies, surrounding me, Covered in blood, bits of dead skin, Masking my aroma, as they close in, ---- Dragging of feet, hearing their groans, A chorus of dead, no longer alone, Clutching tight, the axe in my hand, Looking for flesh, around me they stand, ---- Smelling the air, one turn's his head, Breathing deeply, he can tell I’m not dead, Rage fills my body, a fight to the death, Swinging my axe, with every breath, ---- Cracking of skulls, I fight through the mist, A figure remains, the one that I missed, Anger turns to tears, my beautiful bride, Killed by them all, now a Zombie resides, ---- My arm lowers, I beg her to leave, Closer she comes, I fall to my knees, She reaches out, as her eyes bulge red, I scream out as I.... ....put an axe to her head.
