In The Belly Of A Whale


I built for you a satellite
Strung with the finest thread,
a crown for your pretty head
2 tons of string run out mid flight
Rope burn all blister blue,
I lost my grip and I lost you

Chorus:
In the belly of a whale,
my broken hull and tattered sail
The salt and coral baby blue,
it took the place of me and you
But now I'm married to the sea,
there's nowhere else I'd rather be
I don't think abou the coast,
I don't think about my home

While all the world selpt through the night,
I crept down to the shores
Untied, awoke the oars
I'll drift away into the night
Some say you'll see my ghost,
down in the waves along the coast

Chorus:

Oh molars crush me gently,
sweep me off your falls
What a sorrow feeling,
what a perfect sound

Chorus:

I don't think about the filth,
I don't think about the war
I don't think about the greed,
and I don't care about the score

Well I hope they never ever come,
I hope we're never ever found
Alone in the dark,
we'll never make a sound

'Cause I'll be sitting on your teeth,
and I'll be drinking from your tongue
I fell asleep in your ribs,
and I'm breathing through your lungs
