Текст песни The Pit and the Pendulum

In the darkness left alone Walls surround that hellish hole deadly deep and no way out from above I hear a swinging metal blade clinging In the pit and the pendulum the pit and the pendulum comin' near and nearer In the inquisition's claw sentence of death is their law though unholy and sadistic it's a question of their honour, of gods to die for With the pit and the pendulum the pit and the pendulum swingin' above my throat The pit and the pendulum could it be the soldiers 're coming? The pit and the pendulum do they open up my prison?
