Bottom of the Pit by The Living Tombstone Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
When we hang 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
[Chorus]
In my bed, in my head
There's a light, but it's red
And I wandеr till waters bend around me
And surround mе 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
[Verse 2]
All I'm doing is aiding
All I offer to give is a helping hand
But I cannot see but two feet 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
[Pre-Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
In my bed, in my head
There's a light, but it's red
And I wander till 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
[Verse 3]
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
[Chorus]
In my bed, in my head
There's a light, but it's red
And I wander till 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
[Outro]
Tunnel than the bottom
Sunken to the bottom of the pit
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
[Pre-Chorus]
When we hang 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
[Chorus]
In my bed, in my head
There's a light, but it's red
And I wandеr till waters bend around me
And surround mе 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
[Verse 2]
All I'm doing is aiding
All I offer to give is a helping hand
But I cannot see but two feet 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

Tunnel than the bottom
Sunken to the bottom of the pit
