Nineveh
by Wes King

Album: A Room Full of Stories

Sometimes you're Jonah
On your way away from Nineveh
Sometimes you end up
In the belly of a whale
Sometimes you're just a fool
Who is afraid to fail

Sometimes it's Nineveh
Sometimes it's your own neighborhood
Sometimes you're swallowed up
In your best laid plans
Sometimes you're just a mouse
Afraid of being a man

You could fly from the angels
You could swim from the fishes in the sea
You could flee to the mountains
You can run from yourself
But you can't run from God

Think of Elijah
As he ran away from Jezebel
The wilderness hides you
But it won't hide your fear
In all of these run-ins
There's one thing that's perfectly clear

You could fly from the angels
You could swim from the fishes in the sea
You could flee to the mountains
You can run from yourself
But you can't run from God

Yeah, yeah

You could fly from the angels
You could swim from the fishes in the sea
You could flee to the mountains
You can run from yourself
But you can't run from God

You can run from yourself
But you can't run from God

Mmm-mm-mmm...
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh...
Yeah, yeah, yeah
