John Mark McMillan – Belly Of The Lion lyrics

[Verse 1]
Dance the dance we call living and dying
In the valley of the city, in the belly of a lion
Work all week long, all week long
You can lose your soul in the concrete riverbeds
Rolling with the flow of the currents of the walking dead
Five o'clock comes and you're a rolling stone

[Chorus]
Days like these we've got nothing to sing about
Days like these I don't know what I think about
Days like these who would have known
Days like these I've got nothing to sing about
Days like these I don't know what I think about
Days like these who would have known

[Verse 2]
Listen to the rhythm of the pawn show shore
It's got you falling off your hinges like that old screen porch
It's the interstate slipping in your pores again
You can ride the vein from the corner store to Amsterdam
You can bleed the train from the courthouse to the Vatican
But Friday she's a ghost and gonna slip right through your hands again

[Chorus]
Days like these I've got nothing to sing about
Days like these I don't know what I think about
Days like these who would have known
Days like these I don't know what I think about
Days like these I've got nothing to sing about
Days like these who would have known

[Verse 1]
Dance the dance we call living and dying
In the valley of the city, in the belly of a lion
Work all week long, all week long
You can lose your soul in the concrete riverbeds
Rolling with the flow of the currents of the walking dead
But five o'clock comes and you're a rolling stone

[Chorus]
Days like these I've got nothing to sing about
Days like these I don't know what I think about
Days like these who would have known
Days like these I don't know what I think about
Days like these I've got nothing to sing about
Days like these who would have known
