lyrics

here lies a caveat in practice
the greatest storm i've ever seen
heaven and her riflemen laid fire on our wicked land
hell with his mouth wrapped around

here lie the sons you have abandoned
six stand here, hands empty and weak
heaven and her riflemen put fire in our wicked hands
your cruel messenger said to me

"jonah your blood tastes like sugar
jonah your blood tastes so sweet
jonah, i will pull you under
i know the water makes you weep-
but i can't let you leave"

so save your wounded pride
has humility since cast you aside?
lay on your wounded side
let's keep this between the lord and i
said "if it's an angry god you wanted, i will happily oblige"
then from the mast i saw something rise

here lies the morbid fate we're given
how our bodies give way to the earth
heaven and her riflemen speak curses till the bitter end
but we ourselves are guilty of far worse

"jonah none can stop this hunger
jonah none will wash your feet
jonah i will pull you under
rot inside of me
jonah your blood tastes like sugar
jonah your blood tastes so sweet
jonah i will pull you under
i know the water makes you weep
jonah lay your heart beside you
jonah you are so naive
jonah i will pull you under
i know the water makes weep
but i can't let you leave
down here it's dark, it's too dark for god to see"

here lies my body in his stomach
here lie my bones between his teeth
heaven fell on top of us, reduced our bodies into dust
what says the great whale swallowing me?
