[Verse 1] Midnight creepin’ down your street Rotten rhythm in my feet Hear you whisper, hear you pray But I’m dying just to stay [Verse 2] Cold skin, but a lonely soul Six feet down took its toll Empty eyes but I still see All the friends you’ll never be [Pre-Chorus] You slam the door, you lock me out But I just grin without a doubt [Chorus] I’m your zombie friend tonight Out of the grave, into your light Don’t you run, don’t be so scared I’m the nightmare that just wants to be cared for [Verse 3] Hear you scream when I pass by Guess I’m not your kind of guy Wave hello with broken hands You don’t seem to understand [Verse 4] Dreams of laughter turn to screams Nothing’s ever what it seems Take a chance, come dance with me In this twisted tragedy [Pre-Chorus] You hold your breath, you turn away But I’ll be back another day [Chorus] I’m your zombie friend tonight Out of the grave, into your light Don’t you run, don’t be so scared I’m the nightmare that just wants to be cared for [Bridge – spoken / theatrical] (Oh, come on baby… don’t you wanna play?) (Everybody needs a friend… even the dead…) [Final Chorus] I’m your zombie, skin and bone But I don’t wanna be alone Take my hand, it’s cold as sin Let the horror party begin
