“The Living Dead” was one of the B-sides to the non-album single “Stay Together”. The song is stripped down to quiet vocals and an acoustic guitar, telling a tale of love (and life) torn apart by drug addiction.
[Verse 1]
Where's all the money gone?
I'm talking to you
All up the hole in your arm
Is the needle a much better screw?
[Chorus]
But oh, what will you do alone?
'Cause I have to go
[Verse 2]
Where is this life of fun
That you promised me?
Nothing here works but your works and I mean it
I have to leave
[Chorus]
But oh, what will you do alone?
'Cause I have to go
[Bridge]
If I was the wife of an acrobat
Would I look like the living dead, boy?
You're on the wire and can't get back
Let's talk about the living dead
Could have had a car
Could have had it all
Could have walked in the sky
But we stare at the wall
[Verse 3]
I know where the money's gone
I know what you do
'Cause I've seen the hole in your arm
And the needle's a much better screw
[Chorus]
But oh, what will you do alone?
'Cause I have to go
