Alive In The Septic Tank

I'll be your hired gun
The lump between your lungs
I'll be the hunk of molded plastic
In Egyptian sun, and...

I am hope, I am fear
I am hope, I am fear
I am hope, I am fear

Beyond Mount Zion lies a Southmere Lake high-rise
Where I wrote ten zillion words of Shakespeare
As they hit my white eyes

I am hope, I am (and fear) fear
(I am fear) I am hope, I am fear (ooh)
I am hope, I am fear

I'm in the falling rain, I'm in your early grave
I'm in the shit between where Hell and Heaven look the same
I'm on the highest plane, I've died a thousand ways
I hang in limbo 'cause your savior looked the other way

(Preach)

As mortals we can try, and oh, good Lord, you'll try
But we can't ever offend everyone
At the same time

I am hope, I am fear
I am hope, I am fear
I am hope
I am hope, I am fear
I am hope, I am fear
I am hope

I'm in the falling rain, I'm in your early grave
I'm in the shit between where Hell and Heaven look the same
I'm on the highest plane (plane), I've died a thousand ways
Hang in limbo 'cause your saviors, they all look the same

We all look the same (same)
And we judge the same (same)
And we are bound to wind-up lovers
'Cause we look the same
We all fuck the same (same)
And we all die the same (same)
And in these finite cosmos
Best believe me when I say:

I am hope, I am fear
I am hope, I am fear
I am hope (ooh)
I am hope, I am fear
I am hope, I am fear
I am hope
