Dancing with the Dead

Breathed into clay
Giving life to the living dead
From her gorgeous face
Everyday. Again and again

In a singsong voice
She wakes the dead
An affectionate zombie
A little monster named…

Your lips taste caffeine
Bloody steel candy
Bring me to life
Hold on to me

A night on concrete
The stars won’t nod
Lovely necromancy
It’s still necrophilia

Dance of the dead
With shaking heads
Kill of the lights
Bring me back to life
