Nothing (Dr. Stockill, Emily)
DR. STOCKILL
I look at them
I look at them and I feel nothing
I hear them scream
I hear them scream and I feel nothing
I watch them bleed
I watch them bleed and I feel nothing
Nothing...
Nothing...
Nothing...
For they deserve it
I hold them down
I hold them down and I feel nothing
I stop their mouths
I stop their mouths and I feel nothing
I see them die
I make them die and I feel nothing
Nothing...
Nothing...
Nothing
For they deserve it
I don't know why
EMILY
I don't know why
DR. STOCKILL
I don't know why I haven't killed her
EMILY
I don't know why he hasn't killed me
DR. STOCKILL
There is a voice
EMILY
There is a voice
DR. STOCKILL
Inside me telling I should
EMILY
Telling me my time is at its end
DR. STOCKILL
She's just the same
EMILY
I'm just the same
DR. STOCKILL
She's just the same
EMILY, DR. STOCKILL
As all the others
EMILY
Others... I cannot leave them
DR. STOCKILL
She's stronger now
EMILY
Because of them
DR. STOCKILL
She's stronger now
EMILY
I'm stronger now
EMILY, DR. STOCKILL
Than when I (she) came!
DR. STOCKILL
My God, it sickens me to touch her
EMILY
If only I could get my hands free
DR. STOCKILL
And yet, my pulse, it quickens as I do
EMILY
If only I could move
DR. STOCKILL
Let's play our game
EMILY
I'd try to run
DR. STOCKILL
Where would you go?
EMILY
I'd tell someone
DR. STOCKILL
Who do you know?
Come now, you're cleverer than that
I'd find you in five seconds flat
EMILY
I'd use the key
DR. STOCKILL
How would you get it?
EMILY
Someday you'll see
DR. STOCKILL
Is that a threat?
There now, she's finally closed her eyes
I wonder why she never cries
There's something keeping her alive
Something that I can't bottle up
She should be dead by now with everything I've done to her
I've given her the strongest dose
Of all these whores she's had the most
She should be underneath the ground
But she's alive
I am the saviour of this world!
For this I've killed a thousand girls
But every time I watch one die
I'm thinking only of the first one
The first one, the first one, the first one, the first one,
The first one, the first one, the first one!
She is the closest thing I have to a companion
Yet...
I look at her
I look at her and I feel...
Nothing
I look at them
I look at them and I feel nothing
I hear them scream
I hear them scream and I feel nothing
I watch them bleed
I watch them bleed and I feel nothing
Nothing...
Nothing...
Nothing...
For they deserve it
I hold them down
I hold them down and I feel nothing
I stop their mouths
I stop their mouths and I feel nothing
I see them die
I make them die and I feel nothing
Nothing...
Nothing...
Nothing
For they deserve it
I don't know why
EMILY
I don't know why
DR. STOCKILL
I don't know why I haven't killed her
EMILY
I don't know why he hasn't killed me
DR. STOCKILL

EMILY
There is a voice
