lyrics

Standing on my wooden porch
My fortress for today
Puff of smoke from my cigar
Empty shells astray

Don't know how long I can keep
Driving off the dead
Raise my sights and take my aim
To shoot them in the head

Chorus:
Falling, off the bone
Falling, off the bone
Falling, off the bone
Falling, off the bone

Living corpses move and crawl
As far as I can see
Dead and blighted rotting hands
Reaching out to me

I rack my shotgun, load a shell
Once should be enough
Send these bastards back to hell
Forevermore they'll burn

(Chorus)

Pull the trigger, just a click
I curse and drop the gun
Make a run for my old shed
This should be the one

Kick the door in, break the latch
I fumble in the dark
My hands close on wood and steel
And lift up my old ax

I walk into the setting sun
Hatchet in my hand
Time to put these bastards down
And make my final stand

Raise my ax in front of me
Aiming for their heads
Too many still left to count
An ocean of the dead

The blade comes down into the skull
Blood and brains galore
Ax-head starting to get dull
Covered in their gore

(Chorus)

Arms are getting weak and sore
Can't keep this up for long
There's still so many more to kill
It keeps me going strong

I laugh to myself as I swing
At bodies in decay
They're just like a good cut of meat
As I splatter and flay

(Chorus)
