  • Pretty plastic bottles
    Lay beside your bed
    With every dose you swallow
    You lose your head

    (And how) is your heart still bleeding?
    (Where) did the human go?
    (Yeah) they might keep you breathing
    (Oh) but they numb your soul

    Oh, where did all your fire go?

    You're on the inside
    And I know you're fighting
    On the outside
    Your flesh is dying
    But this is not your funeral
    Wake up, wake up, wake up
    Wake up the zombie
    So long over medicated
    Thinking nothing's wrong
    Cause you're so sedated
    This is not your funeral
    Wake up, wake up, wake up
    Wake up the zombie!
    Wake up the zombie!

    You started forgetting who you really are
    I'm getting kinda worried
    You've been gone so long
    (And how) is your body sleeping?
    (Where) did the human go?
    Has it stopped the healing?
    (Oh) Have you lost you control?

    Oh, where did all your fire go?

    You're on the inside
    And I know you're fighting
    On the outside
    Your flesh is dying
    But this is not your funeral
    Wake up, wake up, wake up
    Wake up the zombie
    So long over medicated
    Thinking nothing's wrong
    Cause you're so sedated
    This is not your funeral
    Wake up, wake up, wake up
    Wake up the zombie!
    Wake up the zombie!

    Pretty plastic bottles
    Lay beside your bed
    Overdose
    Gonna lose your head Writer/s: BLAIR DALY, JUSTIN CORDLE, SKIDD MILLS
