Tip eht fo mottob Lyrics by Shael Riley and the Double Ice Backfire

Ultimate Songs From The Pit

0

[Verse 1]
There's an old man
And he keeps me
In a subterranean area
And he won't let you come and see me
Until you fulfill his criteria:

After midnight
By the full moon's light
Climb way up onto a bridge
Where you'll meet a friend of the old man's
And beat him to death with your fists

[Chorus]
Someday, you're gonna die, you know it
Grow a backbone, but don't you show it
Say to yourself:
"This is it, this is it, this is it"

Wait for the day when you finally show here
Blocking will get you nowhere
Say to yourself:
"This is it, this is it, this is it"

It's life at the bottom of the pit

[Verse 2]
The old man
Is a wizard
And he feeds on younger men's souls
I saw him murder an actor
Just the other day
In his throne room

He treats me
Like an animal
I can't wait for the day that he dies
When I'll take his key
And I'll set me free
If he don't, I might eat him alive

[Chorus]
Someday, you're gonna die, you know it
Grow a backbone, but don't you show it
Say to yourself:
"This is it, this is it, this is it"

Wait for the day when you finally show here
Blocking will get you nowhere
Say to yourself:
"This is it, this is it, this is it"

It's life at the bottom of the pit

[Verse 3]
I'm a monster
When I hunger
And I feed on scorpion flesh
When the insects crawl on the dungeon wall
My tongue makes quite a mess of them

It's been lonely
Since the wizard
Disappeared in the blink of an eye
Saw the old man turn to a young man
Then get up and leave me to die

[Chorus]
Someday, you're gonna die, you know it
Grow a backbone, but don't you show it
Say to yourself:
"This is it, this is it, this is it"

Wait for the day when you finally show here
Blocking will get you nowhere
Say to yourself:
"This is it, this is it, this is it"

Someday, you're gonna die, you know it
Grow a backbone, but don't you show it
Say to yourself:
"This is it, this is it, this is it"

Wait for the day when you finally show here
Blocking will get you nowhere
Say to yourself:
"This is it, this is it, this is it"

It's life at the bottom of the pit
(At the bottom of the pit)
(At the bottom of the pit)
(At the bottom of the pit)
(At the bottom of the pit)
(At the bottom of the pit)
(At the bottom of the pit)
(At the bottom of the pit)
(At the bottom of the pit)
