Belly Of The Beast Songtext
von Ruston Kelly

In the belly of the beast
Where the vultures wait
I will sing, "Hallelujah," til they all fly away
And in the gray of the morning, I′ll keep walking straight

Through the hole in the wall where the angels hide
All the medicine I could take 'til I die
Resurrect me I wanna be more than half alive
In the belly of the beast, I′ll try

In the heart of the dark
In the shadow days, I have
Called out to Michael in a casual way
Said I was looking for manna in everything that I ate


Like the hole through my head where the angels fell
From the medicine I took to be someone else
Holy Spirit, I need to feel it more than I've ever felt
From the heart of the dark, I fled

In the belly of the beast
When I'm small and afraid
I will sing, "Hallelujah," and burst into flames
And awaken what′s worthy and erase what I′ve stained

Like the holes in my life where the angels fly
From the broken and ugly ways that I've died
Resurrect me, I wanna be more than half alive
From the belly of the beast

In the heart of the dark
I′ll stand on my feet and try
