Lyrics

0:15I was down for the count
0:19Without any real way out
0:23In this new submarine
0:27Like the whale of Jonah's dreams
0:32And what if I should rise up
0:36From several fathoms too
0:39A scar on my soul and a humbling tale of a world
0:45That swallowed me whole
0:53Swallowed me whole
1:01It was harmless enough
1:05While acquiring all this stuff
1:09But the truth in the end
1:13Was a slippery descent
1:18And what if I should rise up
1:22From several fathoms too
1:26A scar on my soul and a humbling tale of a world
1:31That swallowed me whole
1:39Swallowed me whole
1:48I was asleep while the angels were weeping
1:52And racing below me to cushion my fall
2:12And I was just like Jonah
2:16Staring down the whale
2:20A scar on my soul and a humbling tale of a world
2:25That swallowed me whole
2:33Swallowed me whole
2:41Swallowed me whole
2:49It swallowed me whole
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 too
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 too
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
