[Verse 1] I don't, know how long I have been livin' like this But I know when the rage began, I've been quivering with I thought in a world like that, it would be live and let live But people shoot on sight, just for anything they can get This is bullsh**, but let me tell you a story I got separated from a friend right next to the quarry We were searching for some food and were trying to survive Now I don't even know, if he is dead or alive We encountered some bandits and had to run We couldn't fight back, because we had no guns But when I turned around, my only friend was gone So I ran through the forest and I searched him 'till dawn Then I gave up, I had to find someplace save I gotta' move on, even without my friend Dave But which way, now I feel lost and scared I stand there, and notice that I stop to care [Hook] DayZ! The day has come DayZ! I'm now on my own DayZ! D-D-D-DayZ! [Verse 2] Since DayZ, I'm missing a lot of stuff that I had I'm not talking about luxury, not even my bed The things you miss, in a world like this Is someone to talk, someone to reminisce And this is, why I'm angry and now searching for a weapon And then find those bandits and teach them a lesson In this direction, I could maybe find what I need Suddenly, there is someone standing right next to me I freeze. He is armed and I only got a hatchet
I can't really see him, his head is covered with a blanket He tells me to "get off or he'll shoot me in an instant" So I walk off in shock, when he starts shooting from a distance He didn't hit me, I could run off in a building Got out of it at the back, and my rage starts increasing Then I see him, probably just searching for me I flank him and my axe is the last thing he sees [Hook] DayZ! The day has come DayZ! I'm now on my own Nobodys gonna help me and nobody's gonna talk to me And I don't know what happend to the people who have walked with me DayZ! The day has come DayZ! I'm now on my own I don't know what will come, but I live to survive I only have this one chance, this one life [Verse 3] So I now got a weapon and blood on my hands I tell myself this was all in selfdefense But then I reflect on what happened, my heart just stopped What if he didn't shoot at me, but a goat or whatnot A cold shiver runs down my back, what if he was protecting me What if some Zeds were at my back that I couldn't directly see And what if he was.. no wait, no way.. I remove his blanket.. no.. no.. Daaaaave! [Hook] DayZ! D-D-DayZ! Nobodys gonna help me and nobody's gonna talk to me And I don't know what happend to the people who have walked with me DayZ! D-D-DayZ! I only have this one chance, this one life
