Lyrics Emilie Autumn – Nothing
Text:
Dr. Stockill:
I look at them
I look at them and I feel nothing
I hear them scream
I watch them bleed
I watch them bleed and I feel nothing
Nothing… nothing… nothing
For they deserve it
I hold them down
I hold them down and I feel nothing
I stop their mouths
I stop their mouths and I feel nothing
I see them die
I make them die and I feel nothing
Nothing… nothing… nothing
For they deserve it
I don’t know why
Emily:
I don’t know why
Dr. Stockill:
I don’t know why I haven’t killed her
Emily:
I don’t know why he hasn’t killed me
Dr. Stockill:
There is a voice
Emily:
There is a voice
Dr. Stockill:
Inside me telling I should
Emily:
Telling me my time is at its end
Dr. Stockill:
She’s just the same
Emily:
I’m just the same
Dr. Stockill:
She’s just the same
Dr. Stockill & Emily:
As all the others
Emily:
Others… I cannot leave them
Dr. Stockill:
She’s stronger now
Emily:
Because of them
Dr. Stockill:
She’s stronger now
Emily:
I’m stronger now
Emily & Dr. Stockill:
Than when I came
Than when she came
Dr. Stockill:
My God, it sickens me to touch her
Emily:
If only I could get my hands free
Dr. Stockill:
And yet, my pulse, it quickens as I do
Emily:
If only I could move
Dr. Stockill:
Let’s play our game
Emily:
I’d try to run
Dr. Stockill:
Where would you go?
Emily:
I’d tell someone
Dr. Stockill:
Who do you know?
Come now, you’re cleverer than that
I’d find you in five seconds flat
Emily:
I’d use the key
Dr. Stockill:
How would you get it?
Emily:
Someday you’ll see
Dr. Stockill:
Is that a threat?
There now, she’s finally closed her eyes
I wonder why she never cries
There’s something keeping her alive
Something that I can’t bottle up
She should be dead by now with everything I’ve done to her
I’ve given her the strongest dose
Of all these whores she’s had the most
She should be underneath the ground
But she’s alive
I am the saviour of this world!
For this I’ve killed a thousand girls
But every time I watch one die
I’m thinking only of the first one
The first one, the first one, the first one, the first one, the first one, the first one, the first one, the first one
She is the closest thing I have to a companion, yet
I look at her
I look at her and I feel… nothing
