Zombie Girl Lyrics

i need a zombie girl who keeps her head on
someone whose eyes are wide
and doesn't feel a thing inside
i need a zombie girl

zombie girl's alright
but she never sleeps at night
from all that she's seen

all the pain she feels inside
or the pain from the daylight
should bring her to me

every night i swear i'll change but i never do
and maybe i lost my spine
but i know i know what's mine
i need a zombie girl

zombie girl's alright
but she never sleeps at night
from all that she's seen

all the pain she feels inside
or the pain from the daylight
should bring her to me

zombie girl's alright
but she never sleeps at night
from all that she's seen

all the pain we feel inside
or the pain from the daylight
should bring her to me

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Howie compares his ideal girl to a Zombie, and what might seem like a joke at first, is actually a trademark Howie Beck lyric. Only girls that have been hurt & disappointed themselves, might qualify as potential partners for him ("all the pain she feels inside, all the pain from the daylight should bring her to me"), probably because for many other women he is just "mr. nice guy". especially the 2nd verse gets very personal - he admits that he tried to change his attitude many times, but never could. and the following line "maybe i lost my spine, but i know what's mine" actually makes him a zombie as well, thus looking for the perfect partner. a howie-beck-esque love story, you could say :-)
