Imagine Dragons - The Pit

To Rate
★ Intro ★
I would rather stay here
Where the flowers bloom and the sun, it shines
It shines on you
It lights up your eyes

★ Verse 1 ★
Sitting here all by ourselves, counting all the people
As they pass us by
They gather all around and stare on down into a dark, dark pit
Don't go, please don't go
But they step on in, oh, they fall all in, they walk all over you
'Cause one step at a time, they all walk in a line
Down a false, false hope

★ Chorus ★
I would rather stay here
Where the flowers bloom and the sun, it shines
It shines on you
It lights up your eyes
I would rather stay here
Where the moon, it glows
Soaring doves and falling crows
Laughter is the only sound we'd hear

★ Post-Chorus ★
If I had one wish
I'd fill up that pit, I'd fill up that pit, oh
I'd cry 'til it filled to the brim
You'd swim to the top
And I'd grab your hand

★ Bridge ★
Oh, how can I, how can I convince you to stay?
Where all the flowers bloom, the grass, it sways
And the rain, it pours, and the waves all roar
And the trees they grow
And the fallen crow soars down into that dark cold pit
And you follow it in
Oh, you follow it in

★ Chorus ★
Well, I would rather stay here
Where the flowers bloom and the sun, it shines
It shines on you
It lights up your eyes
I would rather stay here
Where the moon, it glows
Soaring doves and falling crows
Laughter is the only sound we'd hear

★ Post-Chorus ★
If I had one wish
I'd fill up that pit, well, I'd fill up that pit, oh
I'd cry 'til it filled to the brim
You'd swim to the top
And I'd grab your hand

Imagine Dragons is an American alt-rock band that rose to fame in the 2010s, becoming one of the biggest bands of the decade. The band originated in Las Vegas and is led by frontman Dan Reynolds. Although the band officially formed in 2008, it underwent several lineup changes and experimented with different sounds before solidifying their roster.

Before releasing their debut album, Night Visions, in 2012, Imagine Dragons released six EPs over four years. The band's breakout single, "Radioactive," from Night Visions, became an international hit and broke the record for the most weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 at 87 straight weeks. The band's sound is characterized by crowd-shattering anthems and a unique blend of rock, pop, and EDM elements.

In 2015, Imagine Dragons released their sophomore album, Smoke Mirrors, which showcased a more rock-focused sound and delved into themes of internal struggle and depression. After a hiatus in 2016, the band returned with their third album, Evolve, which continued to push the boundaries of their sound with a focus on pop and EDM influences.

Imagine Dragons released their fourth album, Origins, in 2018, which was seen as a sister album to Evolve. The band took a two-year hiatus before releasing their highly anticipated fifth album, Mercury, which features a mix of introspective lyrics and anthemic melodies.

Throughout their career, Imagine Dragons has continued to evolve their sound and push boundaries, solidifying their status as one of the most influential bands of the 2010s. With their catchy hooks, powerful vocals, and dynamic instrumentals, Imagine Dragons has captivated audiences around the world and left a lasting impact on the music industry.
