Generation Dead

Generation Dead is a young adult supernatural romance novel by Daniel Waters.

The book is a modern reworking of the zombie genre of fiction. It follows a girl named Phoebe and her best friends, Margi and Adam, whose world has been left baffled by a strange phenomenon – dead teenagers not staying dead. For reasons unknown, a small number of the teenaged dead are returning to 'life'. They lack a heartbeat and all other traditional life-signs (respiration, digestion, etc.) but are capable of thought, movement and speech (to varying extents). They are widely feared by the living, but Phoebe finds herself attracted to Tommy Williams, one of the "living impaired" teens at her school.

Plot summary

The protagonist of the story is goth teenager Phoebe Kendall who, along with her best friends Margi and Adam, attends the fictional Oakvale High School. The world in which the story takes place is a strange one, with a supernatural phenomenon that causes dead teenagers to wake from their graves and move about like regular people—except they don't breathe.

Generation Dead

by: Five Finger Death Punch

I look around and all I see is evil
Walking dead disguised as real people
It's kill or be killed 'cause life is not forever
It comes apart and then it falls together
I am what you made me
'Til death do I part
It's the world I've grown to know
Unforgiving and so cold
Take it away
Take it away
I don't want it
It's a life I'm forced to live
I've got nothing more to give
Take it away
Take it away
I don't want it anymore
We're generation dead
We're dead
You see yourself as such a fucking shepherd
But you drift the blind and then you curse the leper
Do you really want my true opinion?
You've taken more than you've ever given
You are what you are
Until death do you part
It's the world I've grown to know
Unforgiving and so cold
Take it away
Take it away
I don't want it
It's a life I'm forced to live
I've got nothing more to give
Take it away
Take it away
I don't want it anymore
Generation dead
It's the world I've grown to know
Unforgiving and so cold
Take it away
Take it away
I don't want it
It's a life I'm forced to live
I've got nothing more to give
Take it away
Take it away
I don't want it anymore
It's the world I've grown to know
Unforgiving and so cold
Take it away
Take it away
I don't want it
It's a life I'm forced to live
I've got nothing more to give
Take it away
Take it away
I don't want it anymore
We're generation dead
