the driver 04:30
well i'm driving on down the road a wagon of whiskey to unload radio's playing some sweet bluegrass the air is clear and sun is high swung a left out on westfield but something jumped in front of me i violently swerved to the side hit a wall and it all went black -------------- i'm just a driver in a strange town looking to unload and get back home i wasn't a hero by any means i'm just an ordinary guy ---------------- i crawled out of the wreckage whole the truck was a-fire - shot to hell looked around and i saw a kid attacked by monsters, the undead hitting back the kid fought out but his strength would surely go a tyre iron i did grab zombie brains all on the ground chorus we ran for a week, lived off the land seemed to be getting nowhere fast looking ahead i made up my mind we'd head up for the higher ground up through the woods we did hike leaving the town far down below if we could make it to the top we'd breathe the fresh air and continue on chorus

heading down from the top a misty mountain hop Joshua is on point rachael scouts ahead forest is green & red but no birds in the sky something isn't real air has a different feel like the world has turned heel we're going slower now there's no reason why been here a hundred times before out of the trees it crashed reeking of rotten flesh arms reached for his neck big joshua hit the deck rachael screamed at the sight creature of the night reared back... took a bite out of his neck we beat the thing to the ground joshua never made a sound lay there stone dead we'll make it to the car said it wasn't far she rushed off up ahead what the hell is going on? where did that thing come from i heard a scream joshua come back to life there was no light in his eyes he had rachael; help me please her eyes called out i stood frozen to the spot what a deadly choice i fought i could save her life... but i ran off to the car

rock bottom 03:59
i walk from the car down to a park i can hear noises off in the dark looking around i arm myself with nothing but a broken piece of self darkness falls the undead crawls backing away i turn to run if only i had a gun id face the wall and end it now but i must fight make a stand turn around and reclaim the land so off i go i'll run like hell into the zombie city breakdown

now i found you just weeks ago chained up to a fence surrounded by the undead i came to your defence named you hercules and we made our way down the highway on the road again it's a long road to travel without you by my side it's a long road to ride alone woke up early one moring you weren't looking too fine one of the zombie undead had bit your side can't let you fade away can't let you turn for love i should take your life before you turn its a long road to travel without you by my side its a long road to ride alone its a long road to travel without you by my side its a long road to ride alone

the boat 03:33
well we made it down to the boat managed to get that old bird afloat set the compass for the northern star let's get out of here let's go real far the undead massed apon the shore was not our problem anymore we're fit to hit the open sea nothing to stop us now, it's like a dream then suddenly the engine died, and started to smoke the tide was turning, pushing us back to the shore frantically we paddled on the oars trying to keep away from the shore the undead cries come on louder still they sensed brains and moved in for the kill our whole life flashed before our eyes all the bitterness and all the lies facing death we stood up with good grace finally ready to meet our fate but then the engine kicked, back into life we hit the open sea and never looked back
