Belly Of The Beast You Love — The Diving Bell Lyrics

You can’t talk your way out of
The belly of the beast you love
Whether you believe it
She knows you don’t mean it
Keeps you safe and warm

Nor will you change her ways
That’s the nature of the beast you crave
She’s a lonely rider
Not a holy martyr
That’s just what she says

The beauty of the beast is
The master of the feast is
The office of the priest is you
All at once you feel it
All your songs reveal it
Still her arms conceal it
Inside of
The belly of the beast you love

You know the beast will get that look again
And who will bear your burden then?
She’s your creation
Dark addiction
Deep within
