Belly of the Beast - Diamond Head

It makes you feel good

Tastes so high

Creeping, numbing fingertips

As a vision passes through my mind

It takes my demands

And brings me to life

As long as I know when to bleed

I know my veins won’t feel denied

You’re the salt of the earth

Ascending the same

And know what you’re worth

When you suffer in the belly of the beast

Suffer

Suffer

When you suffer in the belly of the beast

Suffer

Suffer

When you suffer in the belly of the beast

Sensations run high

And apathy flows

A continuance of repentance

That cradles all indifference

It makes you feed

On chalk and gasoline

A synergy of ecstasy sparks fires

And denies relief

Let’s you know

There never was control

Diving in your secondary skin

You’re the salt of the earth

Ascending the same

And know what you’re worth

When you suffer in the belly of the beast

The tension in here

Is breaking the noose

A never ending calamity, an amnesia that buries you

Been there so long

Squeezing you tight

A deceptive kiss, a deathly grip

That deafens you to slit your wrists

You’re the salt of the earth

Ascending the same

And know what you’re worth

When you suffer in the belly of the beast

Suffer

Suffer

When you suffer in the belly of the beast Suffer

Suffer

When you suffer in the belly of the beast Suffer

Suffer

When you suffer in the belly of the beast Suffer

Suffer

When you suffer in the belly of the beast
