Lyrics Jonah - Guster

Jonah

I was down for the count
Without any real way out
In this new submarine
Like the whale of Jonah’s dreams
And what if I should rise up
From several fathoms deep?
A scar on my soul
And a humbling tale of a 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
And what if I should rise up
From several fathoms deep?
A scar on my soul
And a humbling tale of a world
That swallowed me whole
Swallowed me whole
I was asleep while the angels were weeping
And racing below me to cushion my fall
And I was just like Jonah
Staring down the whale
A scar on my soul
And a humbling tale of a world
That swallowed me whole
Swallowed me whole
Swallowed me whole
It swallowed me whole
