After Maggie Mulligan is bitten during a scuffle with the Zombie Pride group on campus, Principal Weathers begins to doubt his dreams of Human-Zombie Integration

lyrics

I was just a fool
who couldn't find his soul
when I felt the light of sentience return

So I built this school
and only had one goal
to help my undead kindred to learn

I had a dream the walking dead
would be a friend to man instead
of fearing for his foolish head
I had a dream ago

but now that dream it starts to slip
away from my decaying grip
and like rats on a sinking ship
I don't know where to go

but I know
even though

What has happened here
we've fallen oh so fast
is this where I begin to lose control?

This could have been the year
we put away the past
but the past it holds me tight and won't let go.

I had a dream that dream is dead
no way to be resurrected
and even if we lose our heads, they'll never take our souls

We have the means to stand up strong
and I've been dreaming far too long
I've beaten death, I'll beat this wrong
We'll show them how we've grown

'Cause I know even though
I'm a zombie
I still have a soul
