Danny Michel - 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 c***** 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.
