I Don't Understand
Emilie Autumn

[T] Let me take your picture

[E] Is that a camera?

[T] Yes, it is

And when I light the powder

[E] How long does it take?

[T] Well, are you very good at sitting still?

[E] Why do you ask?

[T] If you're not then

We'll have to clamp your head in place

[E] You really do that?

[T] You'd be surprised how often

[E] I've had enough of clamps

[T] I don't understand

[E] He doesn't, does he?


[T] What are all these bruises?

[E] Does he know where he is?

[T] These lacerations... May I look?

[E] What's all this for?

[T] Why is she here?

[E] She doesn't seem to be insane at all

[T] Would you allow me

To place these flowers in your hair

[E] He seems so nervous

[T] Pardon me

[E] He's very pretty

[T] There now

Better then by far

[E] Should we hide the scar?

[T] No, the scar is beautiful

It's like a heart



[E] I'm like Ophelia once again

Is it ever over?

Will it never end?

What accounts for this morbid fascination with the suicidal girl?

Pretend to drown

You moan and sigh

The only thing you're not told is the reason why

This obsession is madness at its most perverse

My God, what in the world

Could be the purpose of this game

When every time it ends the same?

Poor Shakespeare's turning in his grave

But still I must behave

Doctors little slave...


[T] No, no that's perfect

Don't move an inch

That's far more real

I've never seen a face like yours

The world should look upon it

Well, I suppose that's why they brought me here

Miss, I thank you

[E] I've done nothing

[T] She's done more than she knows

[E] I haven't heard those words in years

The chaser's coming for me

[T] Why must she be chained?

I don't understand

[E] He doesn't, does he?
