Emilie Autumn - Gaslight reprise lyrics

The wheels are turning Broken machinery It grinds below us And all around I see The crooked ceiling The old familiar halls The dirty paper That's covering the walls The shattered staircase The bed I'm bleeding in We've tried to fight this But we can never win And in the gaslight that brings both life and d**h If it's like last night this could be my last breath And so I hold tight to any hands I see But nothing's alright they're always watching me And no one's coming, coming to take me home And no one's coming, coming to take me home He takes my picture Although I don't know why His hands are shaking Although I see him try To look collected He thinks it doesn't show We are connected But what he doesn't know Is when the guard comes To take me away I will be tortured Until the break of day And in the gaslight that brings both life and d**h If it's like last night this could be my last breath And so I hold tight to any hands I see But nothing's alright they're always watching me And no one's coming, coming to take me home And no one's coming, coming to take me home He's at the window He's always looking down As we are beaten How can this f**ing town Not know what's happening To all their little girls They've got the Pirate They're cutting off her curls And she is screaming They won't leave her alone And I am dreaming Of joys I've never known At least I'm breathing At least I have my wits But when the cart comes Who's buried in the pits Below my window I hear a horse go by And in the next cell An inmate starts to cry We try our best though To quiet down the fuss We know tomorrow It could be one of us And in the gaslight that brings both life and d**h If it's like last night, this could be my last breath And so I hold tight to any hands I see But nothing's alright they're always watching me And no one's coming, coming to take me home And no one's coming, coming to take me home And no one's coming, coming to take me home…
