If Only

if I were only a zombie
I wouldn't have a broken heart

there would be no more aches and pains
just a craving I couldn't stop

I've an insatiable hunger
if I were only a zombie
I'd be on the hunt for fresh flesh
no exhaustion, no feeling tired

black, white, I don't discriminate
meat's meat, all the same anyway
if I were only a zombie
these thoughts would make me salivate

alas I have a broken heart
muscles ache, I'm falling apart
I wouldn't be needing your love
if I were only a zombie
