Zombie Town
In the shadows of a broken town
Faces marred by sorrow's frown
The streets whisper tales untold
Of lives wrapped in misery's cold
The boy with bottle in hand
Innocence lost in a wasteland
The girl, lost in her own despair
A silent plea for someone to care
Men peddling nature's remedy
To numb the pain of reality
An unforgiving cycle of vice
Drowning in a paradise of lies
A voice pierces through the night
A fleeting moment of fright
Beauty tainted by fear's cruel dance
In a world bereft of chance
In the dark alleys of the unknown
Echoes of shattered dreams are sown
Yet hope lingers in the air
A fragile light beyond despair.
