Larynx of Leviathan
Sharpened my axe and I folded my spade and I
Emptied my pack of the provisions I'd made and I
Though I'd return in a matter of days burt I
Scrawled my goodbyes in the sand just in case
Thought I could
Creep past the teeth like I wind-borne disease
Thought I could
Go mining diamonds in the larynx of leviathan but
If you've ever been in the mouth of the beast, then you know
Once you're inside, it's easier to stay than to go and
You could live forever just injecting the gold from its throat
I built a fire and held on 'til the fever broke
First it was grand, I was stuffing my pack with the
Gold and the gems that I planned to take back with me but
Under that plunder, couldn't straighten my back yet I
Couldn't bear to part with it, felt it reach into me
Thought I could
Creep past the teeth like I wind-borne disease
Thought I could
Go mining diamonds in the larynx of leviathan but
If you've ever been in the mouth of the beast, then you know
Once you're inside, it's easier to stay than to go and
You could live forever just injecting the gold from its throat
I built a fire and held on 'til the fever broke
Emptied my pack of the provisions I'd made and I
Though I'd return in a matter of days burt I
Scrawled my goodbyes in the sand just in case
Thought I could
Creep past the teeth like I wind-borne disease
Thought I could
Go mining diamonds in the larynx of leviathan but
If you've ever been in the mouth of the beast, then you know
Once you're inside, it's easier to stay than to go and
You could live forever just injecting the gold from its throat
I built a fire and held on 'til the fever broke
First it was grand, I was stuffing my pack with the
Gold and the gems that I planned to take back with me but
Under that plunder, couldn't straighten my back yet I
Couldn't bear to part with it, felt it reach into me
Thought I could
Creep past the teeth like I wind-borne disease
Thought I could
Go mining diamonds in the larynx of leviathan but
If you've ever been in the mouth of the beast, then you know
Once you're inside, it's easier to stay than to go and
You could live forever just injecting the gold from its throat
I built a fire and held on 'til the fever broke
