Belly of a Whale
I could dive into the ocean
Into the bottom of a glass
I could hide out in the future
I could burrow in the past
But you cannot resist your tendency
To save me from myself
And I am living on your mercy
In the belly of a whale
I have done some things I'm proud of
And so many I am not
Some vows I remembered
And others I forgot
But you cannot resist your habit of
Forgetting how I've failed
And I am living on your memory
In the belly of a whale
Maybe time will make me humble
And love will make me pure
Til you spit me out at last
Onto a distant shore
And I'll open up my eyes to see
The world beyond the veil
For now I'm living on your promise
In the belly of a whale
I'll open up my eyes to see
The world beyond the veil
For now I'm living on your promise
In the belly of a whale
Into the bottom of a glass
I could hide out in the future
I could burrow in the past
But you cannot resist your tendency
To save me from myself
And I am living on your mercy
In the belly of a whale
I have done some things I'm proud of
And so many I am not
Some vows I remembered
And others I forgot
But you cannot resist your habit of
Forgetting how I've failed
And I am living on your memory
In the belly of a whale
Maybe time will make me humble
And love will make me pure
Til you spit me out at last
Onto a distant shore
And I'll open up my eyes to see
The world beyond the veil
For now I'm living on your promise
In the belly of a whale
I'll open up my eyes to see
The world beyond the veil
For now I'm living on your promise
In the belly of a whale
