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
Thatâs covering the walls
The shattered staircase
The bed Iâm bleeding in
Weâve tried to fight this
But we can never win
And in the gaslight that brings both life and death
If itâs like last night this could be my last breath
And so I hold tight to any hands I see
But nothingâs alright theyâre always watching me
And no oneâs coming, coming to take me home
And no oneâs coming, coming to take me home
He takes my picture
Although I donât know why
His hands are shaking
Although I see him try
To look collected
He thinks it doesnât show
We are connected
But what he doesnât 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 death
If itâs like last night this could be my last breath
And so I hold tight to any hands I see
But nothingâs alright theyâre always watching me
And no oneâs coming, coming to take me home
And no oneâs coming, coming to take me home
Heâs at the window
Heâs always looking down
As we are beaten
How can this fucking town
Not know whatâs happening
To all their little girls
Theyâve got the Pirate
Theyâre cutting off her curls
And she is screaming
They wonât leave her alone
And I am dreaming
Of joys Iâve never known
At least Iâm breathing
At least I have my wits
But when the cart comes
Whoâs 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 death
If itâs like last night, this could be my last breath
And so I hold tight to any hands I see
But nothingâs alright theyâre always watching me
And no oneâs coming, coming to take me home
And no oneâs coming, coming to take me home
And no oneâs coming, coming to take me home
