I was alone
In the darkness
Within the walls of a dungeon
They tied me down
I was helpless
There was no crime
I am not guilty
There was a pendulum dangling over my head
The sword of Damocles hanging by a thread
And i was chained like prometheus wishing i was dead
There was a pendulum dangling over my head
And then it moved
A little lower
And then it swung
A little faster
A little wider
A little slower
A little wider
A little lower
There was a pendulum cricling over my head
Eyes like a vulture tearing me to shreds
And i was staring at the disaster wishing i was dead
There was a pendulum cricling over my head
And there was a pit
All around me
And in the pit
There was darkness
And in the darkness
There was nothing
Except the walls
Getting closer
And bunring spears
Growing longer
As i grow weaker
They grow stronger
Between the pit and the pendulum hanging on to hope
Devil in the belfry pulling on the rope
I was caught in a stranglehold trying not to choke
Beneath the pit and the pendulum
I will come tumbling down, tumbling down
I was traped by a landslide,
Couldn’t touch the ground
An avalanche thundering rolling down a mountain
I was swallowed by a maelstrom
Thinking i would drown, i would drown
Beneath the walls of Jericho
I will go tumdling down,tumbling down
Tumdling dowm,tumbling down
Tumdling dowm,tumbling down
