'The Pit Song' is an original Portal song. A rough draft of this song was originally created 3 years ago for the Portal KZbin series 'The Underground'.
It was a darker-themed Machinima and one of the episodes would feature 'The Pit'; where bots are tortured, destroyed, reappropriated, or just left to rot. All lovely fun for the whole family! I was to expand on it for a future episode. The series unfortunately went into indefinite hiatus, so the song was never finished...until now!
3 years later and I finally got around to remaking it using what I've learned over the years. A lot of you wanted this finished, including myself, so I hope you enjoy it! It was a lot of fun to make something darker and creepier. =D
This took about a month of dedicated work; which was initially slowed down a lot because I've had a lot of other large projects to work on these past few months. Got a lot more stuff coming in the coming weeks / months though. ;)

Lyrics:
Robot #22: He failed the turret peer-review.
Robot #24: He died before he hit the floor.
Robot #25: He never made it out alive.
And Robot #29: Died on the assembly-line.
You want to live? Don't hold your breath...
This isn't life, it's living death!
But not to fear, we're most humane...
You'll never be yourself again!
Robot #44: He couldn't take it any more.
Robot #46: The mechanic simply couldn't fix.
Robot #48: He perished from a gruesome fate.
And Robot #49: Simply ran right out of time.
You want to live? Don't hold your breath...
This isn't life, it's living death!
But not to fear, we're most humane...
You'll never be yourself again...
Robot #62: All he ever saw was blue.
Robot #63: Had an invalid serial-key.
Robot #65: He suffered a corrupted drive.
And Robot #67: Found his way into Android Heaven.
You want to live? Don't hold your breath...
This isn't life, it's living death!
But not to fear, we're most humane...
You'll never be yourself again...
These defective droids
All they know
Is how it feels
To be alone!
Beyond repair
They sit and rust
Broken down
Collecting dust!
They never had the chance to prove
What it is they were
Built to do!
Doomed to fail;
The final nail
In the coffin,
Of eternal jail!
You want to live? Don't hold your breath...
This isn't life, it's living death!
But not to fear, we're most humane...
You'll never be yourself again!
You'll never be yourself again!
You'll never be yourself again...

[@snap3852]

this is based on some other song but I can`t remember which....anyone?

[@Harry101UK]

It's an original song written by a friend and myself a few years ago. It was for another Portal KZbin series (The Underground) that was never finished. ;)

[@user-hx9zd9cb3d]

Alexander Stoyanov щ

[@OmgMcGamez]

planning on finishing it yourself? that would be cool

[@VirtusTenebrae]

No, you were right. Even if it wasn't intentional, the song is very similar to "In the Year 2525" by Zager and Evans.

All of the lines in this song are sad, but the one that goes "Robot #65, He suffered a corrupted drive." Especially with the other robot, trying to get his ally back.

The sheer mystery around "he never made it out alive" makes it the most sinister line in the song.

[@weirdgamer9566]

Simple: it was a test that he kept failing and failing and failing and failing and failing.... He never could make it out alive, stuck in an endless loop of death. Thats why its atlas's arm.

[@Riddle6682]

Or his arm got caught in the door and he slowly rusted and lost power. Just imagine getting your arm stuck under a 100 kg door and then slowly dying while an unbearable pain is being pressed into your arm. Dark.

[@joey00198]

@@Riddle6682 something similar to that actually happened to a guy who fell while rock climbing.. a boulder had landed on his arm crushing it... he eventually ended up cutting his arm off and somehow managed to survive.. his name is aron ralston and theres a movie about him called 127 hours cus thats how long he spend stuck

Completely overthinking as this song is more about aperture. But this song also can be used to show the horrors of testing and building A.I. Imagine if something like this was real, a company that creates machines and either doesn't know their machines are "alive" or see's the A.I as a tool. Forcing them to go through tests to be shipped, sold, improved. The whole; "you'll never be yourself again" could relate to simple reprogramming. Imagine the horror of just being able to change a human's entire personality and sense of self.

1:24 That scene... It's just simply horrifying. I noticed how the core was almost looking right at the timer. All the way through. Which implies they saw the timer count down. Just thinking about it... One day you see a circle around your eye that starts to tick down. You don't know for sure what it means and the only thing you can assume is that it's your death timer. You can't do anything to stop it. All you're able to do is watch as it ticks down. Then once it's over... You just collapse. In an instant. No twitching or sudden movements right before. You don't have time to say anything. You don't feel anything anymore. You're simply just dead. The way the core's eye just goes to black and the mechanism that holds it up fails... To me, it's downright terrifying. And so is 2:03 . The way that P-Body waves into their Atlas's eye... He probably had no idea what happened to his friend. You're walking with your friend and suddenly they completely stop every movement. They just freeze in place. Their eyes don't react to any movements. You call the ambulance but they tell you that your friend has died on the spot...

For that second part of your speech, the whole 2:03 well welcome to how gamers feel like once their online friend stops playing for no reason mid game. Brings curiosity to you because you don't know what happened to them.

There's a terrible vulnerability to machinery, they could run forever if maintained, minds can be backed up, and most problems can be fixed by replacement and yet at any moment any part could fail, and one day inevitably something just won't be able to be fixed.

this is terrifying. the quality controls in aperture for the bots are even worse than the controls for test subjects. and the fact that they can just format them and change their personality is even more scary. not even the bots are safe in aperture. there are no room for errors in the facility this is just depressing

[@enoraltheoutcast]

Yeah... They don't just put them to "The Pit". They wipe their personalities. Which makes it even crueler. You are not just locked away. You are no longer yourself, a fresh person not knowing why are you here are now just rotting to death....

Dracomon it actually can fit, misusing a portal gun could be like misusing a electronic device like a electro hazard, that could also be disobeying the warning signs, and finding a combustible lemon, well it is the 21 century people are dying of boredom so yah, turning into debris is like when a human does drink water and is turned to “dust” and not cooperating is like when do don’t do something and it comes back to haunt you and sometimes kills you

[@tazerfnaf4402]

I remember hearing this music for the first time in the exact year it came out and only now I realised that when he says "This isin't life, is living death." It reminds me of Immortality and "If you want to live, don't hold your breathe" reminds me of space since if u hold your breathe in space you die and this reminded me of the worse fate you can have which is being Immortal and stuck in space, with no one to talk to or anything to see, slowy but surely approaching the most deep and dark places that space will give you.
