Welcome to the Pit

[Verse 1]

You come on down to the pit

Come on down to where the vipers spit

I've been waiting for you down here

[Pre-Chorus 1]

Cover your eyes with the velvet hands of darkness

Cover your eyes with the velvet hands of darkness

[Chorus]

I don't even know your name, you won't even see my face

But you choose to play my games, welcome to the hard place

[Verse 2]

I'll bring you back from the brink

Are you surprised in every way that you like it?

Are you surprised that you want it?

[Pre-Chorus 2]

Cover your lips with the wicked tongue of silence

Cover your lips with the wicked tongue of silence

[Chorus]

I don't even know your name, you won't even see my face

But you choose to play my games, welcome to the hard place

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]

Back to back, you ride the snake

You feel it strike, you feel it bite ya...

[Pre-Chorus 3]

Cover your eyes with the velvet hands of darkness

Cover your eyes with the wicked tongue of silence

[Chorus]

I don't even know your name, you won't even see my face

But you choose to play my games, welcome to the hard place

[Chorus/Outro]

I don't even know your name, you won't even see my face

But you choose to play my games

Now you can feel the hard, the hard... place...
