“Gaslighter (Death is the Mother of Beauty)” is a song about the cruelty of manipulation — how reality itself can be twisted until you doubt your own eyes and feelings.
For this video, I matched the track to scenes from the original British "Gaslight" movie (1940), written by A. R. Rawlinson and Bridget Boland, and directed by Thorold Dickinson. Starring Anton Walbrook, Diana Wynyard, Cathleen Cordell and Frank Pettingell. This story, based on the Patrick Hamilton's play by the name of "Gas Light" (1938), gave a name to this kind of psychological abuse.
This is a project I've been doing since October 2023, after releasing my album "Midnight Butterflies" - using my songs as soundtracks to some of my favorite films of old times (or more recent times, if it's also a favorite). This is something I've been enjoying a lot, so I want to keep doing them. Please, subscribe to the channel if you want to be reminded when I release the next one. Once again, thank you for being here.
This is the anger stage of grief.
This is Gaslighter.

RAVEN LUNIS - GASLIGHTER (DEATH IS THE MOTHER OF BEAUTY)
Music by Raven Lunis
Video edited and coloured by Raven Lunis
Of all the knives that have been thrown at me
Yours was the one that cut deeper
Of all the stabs in the back that I have received
Yours was the one that festered
Sometimes, when I move around,
I can still feel the sting of your knife in my back
Stuck near my heart, right through my chest
Rusting away as I grow older
And still you live on, like nothing’s ever happened
You live on, like I never existed
I sit and stare at this theatre of the absurd
Now that you’re rid of me, can you say you’ve had enough? (Does she know what you’re hiding?)
Tied to your slavery, like a pup to your master (Does she know you wanted me?)
Gonna twist your head around, you’re gonna wish you’d never met me (You’re gonna wish you’ve never met me)
And you still live on, so close to the one you’ve said you never trusted?
Wasn’t she the one you’ve never cared for? (Wasn’t she a bore? Wasn’t she a fake? Wasn’t she an asshole? Wasn't she too much? Wasn’t she the worst friend ever?)
(Is it just me or she doesn’t know that you’re lying?)
(Or is it she… just as fucked up as you?)
(Does she know all the shit you say behind her back?)
You think I forgot what you did, what you said
And all of the shit I’ve been through in your hands
(And all of the nights that I’d wished I was dead)
You think I forgot how you managed to shift the blame (gaslighter)
From your little head games (gaslighter)
Into my fucked up brain
(Gaslighter)
Fuck you, (gaslighter)
Fuck you
