I’m gonna lose the house
and I’ll probably lose the car
I already lost my mind
you already broke my heart
I’m drinking from the bottle
and it’s drinking from me
living here shaking
in the belly of the beast
I been going through
all the stages of grief
but can’t get past the one
where all the blames on me
I’m staring at the ceiling
and it’s staring back at me
living disbelieving
in the belly of the beast
In the belly of the beast I am consumed
in the belly of the beast nothing to lose
beat and chewed from which I cannot defend
in the belly of the beast I’ll meet my end
Quaking in my sleep
from the nightmares that come
quiver in the daylight
as the world becomes undone
watch the words keep flowing
but they are watching me
writing pleas for mercy
in the belly of the beast
In the belly of the beast I am consumed
in the belly of the beast nothing to lose
beat and chewed from which I cannot defend
in the belly of the beast I’ll meet my end
Shiver in the sunlight
shiver in the snow
this loss of fire within me
is the ruin of my life’s show
singing songs of misery
and they are singing me
echo from the walls
within the belly of the beast
In the belly of the beast I am consumed
in the belly of the beast nothing to lose
beat and chewed from which I cannot defend
in the belly of the beast I’ll meet my end
