Fire on the mountain
But there’s a drop of life in the sea
Venomous forests
The fauna roars evergreen
Most good for the most people
Be decent, less evil
Being vile is easy
We lived terribly
Hope springs eternal
As I live and breathe
Jewel panthers leach
Cursed with poor soil, mother’s breached
Pirouette manslayer
We’ve had enough of you filthy creeps
Most good for the most people
Be decent, less evil
Being vile is easy
We lived terribly
Hope springs eternal
As I live and breathe
History told from the bottom
We were fed apples of Sodom
Ashen, encircled pinschers
Forever swelter now you pray for winter
We failed until we didn’t
From Dresden to Damascus
It was left up to legion
A little broken, that’s how the light gets in
From the vale to the spire, I can feel the wind
Most good for the most people
Be decent, less evil
Being vile is easy
We lived terribly
Hope springs eternal
As I live and breathe
On the golden prairie
Wildflowers of Italy
Hope springs eternal
As I live and breathe
