And all the filth upon the floor
from days and weeks, and years before
remind me of my mothers face

I'm drunk with fear

The war has come and I will go
to watch the rain in burning snow 
they say it's easy, hell ...

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
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
I'm drunk with fear
yeah, I'm drunk with fear
I'm drunk with fear
