AIDS gives you 10 years
Cancer gives you 10 months
This gives you 10 days
10 days
Now it seems so short
So very short
But it is long

A common cold
That is the first day
Then the process will start
Your blood will begin to boil
Black as night
Black as death
It has taken hold of you now
There is no escape any longer
All hope is lost
You will rot
Decay
Fester
It is turning your insides to mush
A vile black slime
The pain is unimaginable
To live beyond certain death
Dead yet still alive
You are a corpse
The true meaning of zombie
No longer human
But a factory
A death factory
