Gaslight Lyrics by Scott Helman

Hôtel de Ville

2017

{Verse 1}
Is this the way you wanna go?
Unaware of the flames below
Is this the way you need to be? always in a daydream

{Pre-chorus}
There''s a fire in the house now
But you won't get out
Bleeding smoke and clouds
While the ceiling''s coming down

{Chorus}
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 gaslight?
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?

{Verse 2}
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

{Pre-chorus}
There's a fire in the house now
But you won't come out
You think the smoke is a storm cloud
But the ceiling's coming down

{Chorus}
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 gaslight?
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?

{Bridge}
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

{Chorus}
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 gaslight?
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?
