Goodnight, Sweet Ladies lyrics - Emilie Autumn

[Emily:]

Goodnight, sweet ladies...

Goodnight, sweet friends...

You lie but sleeping

Someday we will meet again, sweet ladies...

Goodnight, sweet friends...

You lie but sleeping

Someday we will meet again

[Emily, Inmates:]

With rosemary green and bright

You're not forgotten, eternal night

Can't fade your memory, dim your light

You've made a difference, you've won your fight

We lift our branches and though we weep

No death could conquer, you only sleep

Goodnight, sweet ladies...

Goodnight, sweet friends...

You lie but sleeping

Someday we will meet again

Goodnight, sweet ladies...

Goodnight, sweet friends...

You lie but sleeping

Someday we will meet again, sweet ladies...

Goodnight, sweet friends...

You lie but sleeping

Someday we will meet again

With rosemary green and bright

You're not forgotten, eternal night

Can't fade your memory, dim your light

You've made a difference, you've won your fight

We lift our branches and though we weep

No death could conquer, you only sleep

Goodnight, sweet ladies...

Goodnight, sweet friends...

You lie but sleeping

Someday we will meet again

Let no voice falter, let die no flame

Let all remember your every name

Let faces turn to the starry sky

Let songs be sung 'til our throats are dry

Let no voice falter, let die no flame

Let all remember your every name

Let faces turn to the starry sky

Let songs be sung 'til our throats are dry

Dry... dry... dry... dry...

[Simultaneously]

Four o'clock, four o'clock...

Never let me sleep...

Four o'clock, four o'clock...

Never let me sleep...

[Simultaneously]

The art of suicide...

Nightgowns and hair...

Curls flying every which way...

[Simultaneously]

I close my eyes and pray for the garish light of day...

Like a frightened child I run from the sleep that never comes...

[Simultaneously]

If I burn you will see the fire in your mind when you sleep...

[Simultaneously]

The pain too pure to hide...

Bridges of sighs...

Meant to conceal lover's lies...

[Simultaneously]

I close my eyes and pray for the garish light of day...

Like a frightened child I run from the sleep that never comes...

[Simultaneously]

Under the arches of moonlight and sky...

Under the arches of moonlight and sky...

Start Another Story lyrics - Emilie Autumn

[Sir Edward, Ambassador of the League of Asylum Plague Rats:]

Start at the beginning, finish at the end

Everything you'll tell them is true, nothing is pretend

But when you long to come running back, remember

This is now, that was then

Yesterday will find you, where you've been before

Let the past remind you what's done

Now look for something more

There's a place I can almost see before us

Never if, only when

Start another story, tell it as you go

Make a happy ending, or sad

Tell it how you know

Just remember a day gone by is never really gone

If your tale goes on

If your tale goes...

One Foot In Front Of The Other lyrics - Emilie Autumn

How did I get myself into all of this mess?

How did I end up with this deadly home address?

How did I come to this, where every song I sing

Is nothing but a list of pain and suffering?

We never will forget, and no, we will not forgive

We fought hard not to die, yet we don’t know how to live

How do we change our world to what we want it to be?

How do we move beyond all of this misery?

One foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one…

I’ve been in chains since I was nothing but a kid

We don’t know freedom, not quite sure that we ever did

Now that we have it, how will we make use of it?

We’ve been committed — now to what do we all commit?

I used to have a home, now I don’t even have a name

I’m nothing but a number, here we are all the same

We’ve lost so much, so many of those we love are dead

How do I get these memories out of my fucking head?

One foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one…

How do we bear this burden, far too much to carry?

How do we change our prison to a sanctuary?

We’ve been kept from the light, no one ever gave a damn

If I’ve no one to fight, how do I know who I am?

One foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one…

We waged a war with Hell, and look, we still survive

But just because we live does not mean that we’re alive

We’ve won the final round, but how to enjoy the win

When we’ve been broken down and we’ll never know what could have been

Heaven help us, where do we begin?

One foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one!

One!

One!

Girls Just Wanna Have Fun lyrics - Emilie Autumn

(originally by Cyndi Lauper)

I come home in the morning light

My mother says

"When you gonna live your life right?"

Oh, mother dear

We're not the fortunate ones

And girls, they wanna have fun

Oh, girls just wanna have fun

The phone rings

In the middle of the night

My Doctor yells

"What you gonna do with your life?"

Oh, Doctor dear, you know

You're still number one

But girls, they wanna have fun

Oh, girls just wanna have

That's all we really want

Some fun

When the working day is done

Oh, girls, they wanna have fun

Oh, girls just wanna have fun

Girls, they wanna, wanna have fun

Girls wanna have 

Some boys

Take a beautiful girl

And hide her away

From the rest of the world

I wanna be the one

To walk in the sun

(when the working day is done)

That's all they really want

Some fun

When the working day is done

Oh, girls, they wanna have fun

Oh, girls just wanna have fun

Girls, they wanna

They wanna have fun

Girls wanna have

They just wanna, they just wanna

They just wanna, they just wanna

That's all they really want

Some fun

When the working day is done

Oh, girls, they wanna have fun

Oh, girls just wanna have fun

Girls, they wanna

They wanna have fun

Girls wanna have

When the working

When the working

When the working day is done

Oh, when the working day is done

Oh, girls, they wanna have fun

They wanna have fun

Gloomy Sunday lyrics - Emilie - Autumn

Sunday is gloomy,

My hours are slumberless

Dearest the shadows

I live with are numberless

Little white flowers

Will never awaken you

Not where the black coach of

sorrow has taken you

Angels have no thoughts

Of ever returning you

Wouldn't they be angry

If I thought of joining you?

Gloomy Sunday 

Gloomy is Sunday,

With shadows I spend it all

My heart and I

Have decided to end it all

Soon there'll be flowers

And prayers that are sad I know

let them not weep

Let them know that I'm glad to go

Death is no dream

For in death I'm caressing you

With the last breath of my soul

I'll be blessing you

Gloomy Sunday

Medicate With Tea lyrics - Emilie Autumn

I don't do crack

I've never seen cocaine

Unfortunately, I rarely pop an aspirin when in pain

'Cause I wanna be

Of alcohol or any drug at all completely free

But I self medicate with tea

Doot da doot doot 

I know just where to go to get my fix

The beverage aisle

At Starbucks, I confess, I get my kicks

I'm notin denial

My oolong heals, your dealer deals for quite a hefty fee

So I self medicate with tea

Do do do do

It's not that I'm not miserable as any old drunk 

My life is no more bearable than any old junkie's

I'd jump out a window, suicide's a sin though

I've found another way 

there's no amount I wouldn't pay

to overdose on earl gray or English breakfast

When I'm hopped up on caffeinated chai

I'm feeling the buzz

And when you asked if I'd like to get high

I already was

It's black or green or in between 

Sometimes it looks like weed

But my self medicating

Improves my mental stating

I don't need to go to rehab or to set up a meth lab

I may be a cynic but the Betty Ford clinic

Isn't ever gonna break me from my habit of choice

It's my Opium, my Xanax, and it's good for my voice

I hope you comprehend my reasoning

Twinings, Liptons, even Celestial Seasonings

Keep you marijuana I've got my own remedy

I self, self medicate with tea

Boom

It's camomile, yeah

Tea Will Rock You lyrics - Emilie Autumn

Muffin you're a mouse in a big house playing in your cage

Gonna be a big rat some day

You've got cake on your face, you big disgrace,

dripping your tea all over the place.

Tea will, tea will rock you,

Tea will, tea will rock you.

(huh)

Crumpet, you're a young rat, small rat, 

Shouting in the street, gonna wreck you're first tea party

You've got cake on your face, you big disgrace

Waving your tail all over the place

Singing:

Tea will, tea will rock you

(C'mon)

Tea will, tea will rock you

Rat, you're a big rat, smart rat,

Scratching with your paws, gonna spread you some plague some day. 

C'mon get on the stage, let out your rage, 

No-body gonna put you back into your cage.

Tea will, tea will rock you

(Everybody)

Tea will, tea will rock you

Willow lyrics - Emilir Autumn

Willow, weep for me 

Bow your tallest tree 

Down to the infamous hands 

Of someone no one understands 

I'm not unique in this 

It's based on none but my mistake 

At night I lie awake 

Thinking of all the hearts I'd happily break 

It's cruel I know 

At least they tell me so 

Well someone lock me up and throw away the key 

Because I'm not ashamed, oh no 

Oh, willow 

That I only write love songs 

To those whom I don't love 

I only reach for him 

Who's tied to someone else's glove 

That which I hold inside 

Which I admire and deride 

Which I protect and hide is yours 

Willow, weep for me 

Don't think I don't see 

This life I'm living in two 

But still it's something I must do 

I'm not unique in this 

Nor am I special, sweet or kind 

I court a thousand smiles 

Yet I keep my own to hide behind 

It's cruel I know 

At least they tell me so 

Well someone lock me up and throw away the key 

Because I'm not ashamed, oh no 

Oh, willow 

That I only write love songs 

To those whom I don't love 

I only reach for him 

Who's tied to someone else's glove 

That which I hold inside 

Which I admire and deride 

Which I protect and hide is yours 

Slander and distension 

They're parlor games to me 

Papers overrun with lies too mad to mention 

You say they never hurt you 

No consequence, I'm happy 

We're much too far above it all 

But oh no, that's not true 

These wicked pastimes take their toll 

These tyrant vices break your soul 

Deliver me from all I am 

And all I never want to be 

I love you (Oh willow, willow, willow) 

Doubt me not 

Rewrite this plot for all to see 

And I only write love songs 

To those whom I don't love 

I only reach for him 

Who's tied to someone else's glove 

That which I hold inside 

Which I admire and deride 

Which I protect and hide is yours 

Bend your branches to the ground and hold me close 

Let me harmonize with all we knew 

Share your sympathy and weep for me 

Oh, willow, heal the hearts I've broken 

Make me pure and start my song anew 

For I only write love songs 

To those whom I don't love 

I only reach for him 

Who's tied to someone else's glove 

That which I hold inside 

Which I admire and deride 

Which I protect and hide is yours
