This is a set of lyrics to a song that I wrote about a year ago. I use guitar pro and created a pretty heavy song in it about a year ago. Recently, I recorded real guitars over the guitar-pro track and it sounds bad ass.
So far it is simply an instrumental, but soon I will put these lyrics on it.
Undead On Arrival
by Derrick Lesters
Residents of the small town
Watch their numbers quickly go down
They have been attacked by unknown forces
Made up of soldiers that are rotting corpses
One fighter retains only half his head
But it bothers him not for he is dead
The people watch in uncontrollable abject fear
As the troops continue to stumble and crawl near
Souls of the dead completely cover the sky
They’re unable to depart for they have failed to die
Unable to escape limbo, they cannot stop their own malice
The anguish they cause, they’re forced to witness
They see their own bodies lay motionless in the rain
They watch, disembodied from their broken remains
As their bodies begin to move and reanimate
Their souls weep at this horrible twist of fate
Unable to stop their own hands or their brother’s
They only watch in sadness as they kill their own mother
She screams in fear, sighting her son’s empty eyes
He tears into her throat and she gurgles as she dies
The people are aware that no one will survive
Parents tell their children it’ll be alright
The kin are slightly less fearful because of this lie
Then the people surrender their flesh and prepare to die
The undead surrounds their trapped human game
Zombies swarm on the people as they murder and maim
Children find the lie in what their parents had said
They run in futility, they shall become the undead
Please tell me what you think!
So far it is simply an instrumental, but soon I will put these lyrics on it.
