Guster
Jonah
[Verse 1: Adam Gardner]
I was down for the count
Without any real way out
In this new submarine
Like the whale of Jonah's dreams

[Chorus: Gardner/Gardner, Ryan Miller & Joe Pisapia]
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

[Verse 2: Gardner]
It was harmless enough
While acquiring all this stuff
But the truth in the end
Was a slippery descent

[Chorus: Gardner/Gardner, Miller & Pisapia]
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
[Bridge: Gardner & Pisapia]
I was asleep while the angels were weeping
And racing below me to cushion my fall

[Chorus: Gardner/Gardner, Miller & Pisapia]
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
