Call me Jonah
Been living in the belly of a whale
Call me a loner
Guess sometimes you never can tell
Toss me overboard
And watch me sinking like a stone
No matter how I write this story
It always turns out alone
I'm trying to hide my shame
Underneath this dying tree
Picking up the pieces of my life
like all of these dead leaves
Now I can feel the slap and sting of fate on my face
On my knees it brings laughter out of every dark place
Call me Jonah
Been living my life in the belly of this whale
You can take this picture of me and hang it on the gates of hell
When you hear me crying out
You just keep on walking by
I don't really need your help
Getting this last good piece of me to die
Oh Jonah
Oh Jonah
Oh Jonah
