The meaning of the lyrics of the song "I Walked with a Zombie" by the artist "Wednesday 13"

English:

The song "I Walked With a Zombie" by Wednesday 13 is a macabre love story about a man obsessed with a zombie. The lyrics are filled with black humor and gothic aesthetics, characteristic of Wednesday 13's work.

The meaning of the song lies in exploring unconventional, even shocking, love. The lyrical hero finds attraction in a creature traditionally considered repulsive. He is not afraid of the zombie, but rather fascinated by her otherworldly beauty and submissiveness.

The text presents the following key themes:

Obsession: The hero is obsessed with the zombie, she is his "only one," he "fell in love with a rotting zombie."

Death and Decay: The image of the zombie itself symbolizes death and decay.

Dark Romance: Despite the gruesome imagery, the song is permeated with a strange romantic aura.

Submissiveness: The hero enjoys the fact that the zombie obeys him and fulfills all his desires.

The repeating phrase "I walked with a zombie" becomes a kind of anthem of obsession and acceptance of unconventional love. The song does not give a definite answer to the question of the nature of the relationship between the hero and the zombie, leaving room for interpretation by the listener.

I'm damned if I voodoo,

And I'm dead if I don't

Kick the crypt and baby walk with me

And we'll find a new place to haunt

Now the dead can't die,

They're not alive

I've got one walking by my side

It's a curse, a hex,

Tell me what comes next

Tie the noose around my neck

See you in the graveyard at midnight

Such a horrifying delight

Your ice-cold touch,

It feels so right

And just last night

I walked with a zombie,

Zombie, zombie

I walked with a zombie,

Zombie, zombie

I walked with a zombie

Her stare is so demanding and

Her groans are so commanding

She makes me feel like a kid in a candy shop

With my head on the butcher block

You're the only one for me,

I'm in love with a decomposing zombie

Beauty's on duty in this horror movie

Make me spill my guts with just one touch

See you in the graveyard at midnight

Such a horrifying delight

Your ice-cold touch,

It feels so right

And just last night

I walked with a zombie,

Zombie, zombie

I walked with a zombie,

Zombie, zombie

I walked with a zombie

She makes me do everything

She wants me to

And that's okay with me because

I'm walking with a zombie

See you in the graveyard at midnight

Such a horrifying delight

Your ice-cold touch,

It feels so right

And just last night

I walked with a zombie,

Zombie, zombie

I walked with a zombie,

Zombie, zombie

I walked with a zombie,

Zombie, zombie

I walked with a zombie,

Zombie, zombie

I walked with a Zombie, zombie, Zombie, zombie
