The Zombie
When the world stops to matter And all the roads to your destiny Lead to the void in your heart, As a narrow unlit one way street…
When u're no longer a happy part Of the endless cosmic whole You suck yourself in with your grief Like a scary, sorry, dense black hole…
When you draw the curtains on the sun And shun all light that you might find You begin to revel in your own shadows And the darkness envelops your mind…
When you give up on hope and love And wait for the end to arrive When your life is like a transit lounge And nothing gives you any joy…
It is time you wake up to the fact That you have to find the will to try Cos nothing happens on its own And you have to live so you can die
