Bilingual
I fell into the pit of language
I fell into the pit of language
I fell into the pit of language
I fell into the pit of language
Buried up to my waist
Words, syllables and fragments
Stammered all around
I fell into the pit of language
I fell very deep
I fell into the tar-hole of language
And I'm sinking, I keep my mouth shut
Phonemes, molecules and fossils
All the way up to my neck
I fell into the pit of language
And I couldn't lift myself out
I fell into the pit of language
I fell into the pit of language
