Bottom of the Pit Songtext
von The Living Tombstone

I′m a little bit anxious
I'm a little unsure of where to go
I′m a little kid swallowed
By the shadows in the ocean and I know
It's a little bit daunting
It's a little bit scary when I′m alone
It′s a little bit dark outside
When I'm uptight, I call you on the phone

When we hung up, I stay awake
For a while wondering
If what you say is true
I am flawed but fixable
When I manage some shut eye
Oh, for all I know I might be slumbering
Although I′d rather be dead on your couch


In my bed, in my head
There's a light but it′s red
And I wander 'til waters bend around me
And surround me until I quit
What′s this shining at the far end of the road?
Oh, I admit
I'd rather see the dark end of a tunnel
Than the bottom of the pit

All I'm doing is aiding
All I offer to give is a helping hand
But I cannot see but two feets in front of me
So try to understand
If you′re caught in a doorway
And a fire is nipping at your heel
If you′re stuck on a sinking ship
Enjoy your trip and pray it isn't real

When I wake up, I find that I′m
Hungry for more, unsatisfied
Oh God, I'm blue
But it will all be alright
If it wasn′t for all these
Uninvited visitors outside
I'd say I′m having a damn good night


In my bed, in my head
There's a light but it's red
And I wander ′til waters bend around me
And surround me until I quit
What′s this shining at the far end of the road?
Oh, I admit
I'd rather see the dark end of a tunnel
Than the bottom of the pit

I′m in need of a captain
And I wish you were that for me today
I'm in need of a wax and feather
Set of wings and then I′ll be okay
As long as I take off
When the sun can't burn away my dream
Don′t know when I'll be back this way
Perhaps some day, don't wait

In my bed, in my head
There′s a light but it′s red
And I wander 'til waters bend around me
And surround me until I quit
What′s this shining at the far end of the road?
Oh, I admit
I'd rather see the dark end of a tunnel
Than the bottom

Tunnel than the bottom
Sunken to the bottom of the pit
