Lyrics Guster - Jonah

«Jonah»

I was down for the count
Without any real way out
In this new submarine
Like the whale of Jonah’s dreams

What if I should rise up
From several fathoms deep
A scar on my soul
And a humbling tale of the world
That swallowed me whole?
Swallowed me whole

It was harmless enough
While acquiring all this stuff
But the truth in the end
Was a slippery descent

What if I should rise up
From several fathoms deep
A scar on my soul
And a humbling tale of the world
That swallowed me whole?
Swallowed me whole

I was asleep
While the angels were weeping
And racing below me
To cushion my fall

I was just like Jonah
Staring down a whale
A scar on my soul
And a humbling tale of the world
That swallowed me whole
Swallowed me whole (x3)
