Lyrics
The Jonah
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Blinding vision in my mind's eye
I dream a perfect world where nobody dies
Where tragedy and calamity don't plague me
No hurricanes devastate my skies
All I touch turns to dust
Know me at your own risk
But don't get too close
What am I? (I breed disaster)
Who am I?
So recognize that you're in danger
The jonah in me will snatch
You life away stay away
Bequeathed this trait down through untold lifetimes
A chaperone that's smothered me from birth
No family, no confidantes, no love to speak of
All have fallen prey to this wretched curse
My time spent in cold isolation
This warning obscures no deception
Can you tell me
What am I?
I breed disaster
Who am I?
So recognize that you're in danger
The jonah in me will snatch your life away
Incurring wrath at my mixed emotions
Disconsolate at living out this lie
I yearn to lead a life of inconsequence
But reality makes me kiss this life goodbye
