Zombie
You are dead but you are acting alive
Eating brains but not gaining knowledge
So how are you expected to survive?
Do you really think the truth is sublime?
How are you expected to go to college?
You are dead but you are acting alive
True love is something you have been deprived
A lone life is what you will acknowledge
So how are you expected to survive?
The meaning of your words you can't derive
It's okay to hide what is inside
You are dead but you are acting alive
Ignore the world and let ignorance thrive
Otherwise your brain, your thoughts, will be fried
So how are you expected to survive?
Grab routine's wheel, take it for a test drive
Maybe you will find out there's an upside
To being dead and just acting alive
Perhaps this is the way we all survive?
