Courage in the Undead
Tiny teeth are metal teeth
One depart in a burned-out crib
Ash in the air,
dead city asleep One eye open,
counting sins
Jaw cracked sideways,
still I march straight Boots on
bone dust,
rust in my veins Face half
missing, aim dead steady They called
me gone,
I came back ready
Crow-feet skyline, skull-heap border I chew
through fear like cheap holy water
You hear that drag?
That's my old chain Pulled from
a grave,
worn like a medal We are
the brave undead
Rot in our lungs,
no dread
Teeth full of earth,
still grinning Courage in the rot,
we're winning
We are the brave undead
Eyes full of war,
not red
Cut through the dark,
still singing Courage in the rot,
we're winning
Stitches for stripes,
scars for my armor Heart don't
beat, but it hits harder Torn-up
banner stapled to my chest Name
long gone,
but I passed the test
They throw their fire,
I walk on through it Skin
might bubble,
soul won't move Last one standing
past the slaughter Maggots crawl,
but I walk taller
We are the brave undead
Rot in our lungs,
no dread
Teeth full of earth,
still grinning Courage in the rot,
we're winning
We are the brave undead
Eyes full of war,
not red
Cut through the dark,
still singing Courage in the rot,
we're winning
