Like he has always done before
Something scrapes on a table
Someone is settling a score
And I don't know how I found you
There must be millions here at least
But I wrap my arms around you
Deep in the belly of the beast
A Serengeti state of mind
One day you are adventuring
The next you're always out of time
First life breaks down and bleeds you
Then offers you a hollow feast
And then the hunger feeds you
into the belly of the beast
And I think a warm hand leads you
I think you're gonna be alright
You take the time you need to,
I will stay on the phone all night
and try to speak the words you need
But every voice feels distant,
from in the belly of the bird
Don't think you're less than others
We've been here many times before
And I don't know how it saved me
But love crept in and made a key
And it will lead you safely
Out of the belly of this beast
The man is selling fables
Like he has always done before
Something scrapes on a table
Someone is settling a score
An d I don't know how I found you
There must be millions here at least
But I wrap my arms around you
Deep in the belly of the beast
