And all the filth Upon the floor From days and weeks And years before Remind me of my mama's face I'm drunk with fear The war has come And I will go To march through rain And blood and snow They say it's easy killin' folks I'm drunk with fear The choir stands To sing a hymn The walls they crack A man walks in He's standing there, knee deep in sin I'm drunk with fear I cower down behind my chair I got my gun hidden there I lock and load And whisper prayers I'm drunk with fear Drunk with fear Sick with dread This war is endless LORD above, LORD below I ain't never felt so low Remember Jim from down the street? I watched him crawl I watched him creep I watched him die like butchered meat I'm drunk with fear And then there's Hal Remember him? He taught my brother how to swim I watched some folks dismember him I'm drunk with fear
