Don't go without, we'd surely die
To go without is suicide
Are you a lion or a lamb?
Are you as guilty as I am?
Ooooooo......

"Are you as guilty as I am?"
Is this about morality? Spirituality? There is the verse in the old testament about the lion laying down with the lamb, portraying the idea of peace.
Very enigmatic all in all.
@atamata That's exactly what it's about, and it does indeed refer to that same old-testament story you spoke off.

In some Mormon theological assessments, God makes people who they are (not quite predestiny) and their duty is to enact that "self" to His end. The idea behind this song is rooted in that concept and in that regard is very similar to Murderer. The speaker of the song says, "I'm a lion, I eat the lamb, I'm guilty and I accept that because that's as God crafted me." He then asks the listener to accept the same.
interesting interpretation.
