Paul Waggener - “Undead”

UNDEAD (2023)

Hungry as a ghost
Who starved to death on love
Who lived a life for pleasure
But found none in the end

Lonely as the wind
been blowin outside my door
lord I drank til I was dyin
Of wounds I could not mend

Now the sun don’t shine
and Eternity takes so long
When every second kills
I’m Undead

At the bottom of each bottle
At the end of every line
There was nothin for me there
Just more of the same damn thing

In the cold distant silence
Of another night alone
I could hear my darlin crying
For her long forgotten king

Cause if you live long enough
To see all your dreams brought low
You’ll feel the touch of death
But you won’t have sense to go

into that freezing graveyard
That’s the end of all your strife
That wretched deep black soil
That’s the answer to all life
