Lyrics
Yellow Belly
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You were built for blessing
But you only make them bleed
You don't care, you don't care
And bruises are but shadows
Of the blackness that you breed
But you don't care, you don't care
The light that's left inside their eyes
Is darkened day by day
You don't care, you don't care
The presence pulls the color
From the world till all is grey
But you don't care, you don't, you don't, you don't
You're less than half a man
Yellow belly and crimson hands
You're the ones that reap your reckoning
Maybe then you'll understand
Hands are made to comfort
But they only conjure fear
But you don't care, you don't care
She's in the closet, praying: Lord
Please get me out of here
You don't care, you don't, you don't, you don't
You're less than half a man
Yellow belly and crimson hands
You're the ones that reap your reckoning
Maybe then you'll understand
What mercy have they known
From you, from you
To ask that I be shown
To you, to you
What mercy have they known
From you, from you
To ask that I be shown
To you, to you
