My Electric Chair
Verse
I’ve been caught in a crossfire hurricane.
Been buried by a landslide.
I’ve been living in; dying in a nightmare.
Been praying for the sun to rise.
Pre chorus
Has someone sewn my eyes shut?
Has the lid been closed for good?
Am I now six feet under?
Is that death in her black hood?
Chorus
Raise this veil of darkness.
Rescue me from despair.
Free me from the restraints
Of my electric chair.
Verse
I’ve been trapped in this place without sunlight.
Been held here against my will.
I’ve been lying here in this coffin
Without a cyanide pill.
Pre chorus
Has someone sewn my eyes shut?
Has the lid been closed for good?
Am I now six feet under?
Is that death in her black hood?
Chorus
Raise this veil of darkness.
Rescue me from despair.
Free me from the restraints
Of my electric chair.
Bridge
My conscience is a cruel master.
Tortures my soul night and day.
For some death is a savior.
As Verse
I’ve been caught in a crossfire hurricane.
Been buried by a landslide.
I’ve been living in; dying in a nightmare.
Been praying for the sun to rise.
Pre chorus
Has someone sewn my eyes shut?
Has the lid been closed for good?
Am I now six feet under?
Is that death in her black hood?
Chorus
Raise this veil of darkness.
Rescue me from despair.
Free me from the restraints
Of my electric chair.

'I’ve been caught in a crossfire hurricane'. That line is from the Stones 'Jumping Jack Flash'. This sounds like a commercial rock song from the 1980's to me. Apart from that first line I don't hear The Stones.
Good lyrics. I'm not sure that Ai does this genre particularly well though.
