A zombie tale.
The Dead Shall Inherit the Earth

Our blood's not red.
Our souls have gone.
'Cos we're the dead,
But we live on.
Our brains they stink.
Our skulls are frayed.
We cannot think.
We're long decayed.

We are the zombies.
We never lie.
You the living
Will lay down and die.
Your bodies will rise.
Your souls will flee,
And you'll walk the Earth
For eternity.

We'll plod through time
Until the warm
Are fully extinct
Completely gone.
No more death.
No more birth.
Just us zombies
Walking the Earth.
