Gaslight

(album: Hôtel De Ville - 2017)

Is this the way you wanna go
Unaware of the flames below
Is this the way you need to be
Always in a daydream

There's a fire in the house now
But you won't get out
Bleeding smoke and clouds
While the ceilings coming down

Keep me awake in the middle of the night
Oh why can't you trust your own eyes
Keep me awake in the middle of the night
Oh why can't you see the gas light
You can't hear anybody calling
Can't hear the sirens or the warnings
Why can't you trust your own eyes
Why can't you see the gaslight
Why can't you trust your own eyes
Why can't you see the gaslight

You thought that you were in control
Turns out that's impossible
Cause you handed it off to a fool
Now only you can save you

There's a fire in the house now
But you won't come out
You think the smoke is a storm cloud
But the ceilings coming down

Keep me awake in the middle of the night
Oh why can't you trust your own eyes
Keep me awake in the middle of the night
Oh why can't you see the gas light
You can't hear anybody calling
Can't hear the sirens or the warnings
Why can't you trust your own eyes
Why can't you see the gaslight
Why can't you trust your own eyes
Why can't you see the gaslight

Run run, go go, run run

Constant conviction and the unconvincing information
You'd like to think that all of this was part of your invention
I guess I should recede but I see a salvation round
Come out the house now
Come out the house now

Keep me awake in the middle of the night
Oh why can't you trust your own eyes
Keep me awake in the middle of the night
Oh why can't you see the gas light
You can't hear anybody calling
Can't hear the sirens or the warnings
Why can't you trust your own eyes
Why can't you see the gaslight
Why can't you trust your own eyes
Why can't you see the gaslight
