The Pit of Language Songtext
von Einstürzende Neubauten

I fell into the pit of language
I fell into the pit of language
I fell into the pit of language

I fell into the pit of language
Buried up to my waist
Words, syllables and fragments
Stammer all around


I fell into the pit of language
I fell very deep

I fell into the tar-hole of language
And I′m sinking
I keep my mouth shut

Phonemes, molecules and fossils
All the way up to my neck

I fell into the pit of language
And I couldn't lift myself out

I fell into the pit of language
I fell into the pit of language
