Alive in the Septic Tank lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'll be your hired gun
The lump between your lungs
I'll be that hunk of moulded plastic
In Egyptian sun and

[Hook]
I am hope
I am fear
I am hope
I am fear
I am hope
I am fear

[Verse 2]
Beyond Mount Zion lies
A Southmere Lake high-rise
Where I wrote ten zillion words of Shakespeare
As they hit my white eyes

[Hook]
I am hope
I am fear
I am hope
I am fear
I am hope
I am fear
[Chorus]
I'm in the falling rain
I'm in your early grave
I'm in the sh*t between where
Hell and Heaven look the same
I'm on the highest plane
I've died a thousand ways

[Bridge]

[Verse 3]

[Hook]
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
[Chorus]
I'm in the falling rain
I'm in your early grave
I'm in the sh*t between where
Hell and Heaven look the same
I'm on the highest plane

Saviours, they all look the same

We all look the same
And we all judge the same
And we are bound to wind up lovers
'Cause we look the same
And we all f*ck the same
And we'll all die the same
And in this finite cosmos
Best believe me when I say:

[Hook]
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
