Crucify

Tori Amos

Every finger in the room is pointing at me
I wanna spit in their faces
Then I get affraid what that could bring
I got a bowling ball in my stomach
I got a desert in my mouth
Figures that my courage would choose to sell out now.

I've been looking for a savior in these dirty streets
Looking for a savior beneath these dirty sheets
I've been raising up my hands
Drive another nail in
Just what God needs
One more victim

Why do we crucify ourselves
Every day I crucify myself
And Nothing I do is good enough for you
Crucify myself
Every day I crucify myself 
And my heart is sick of being in chains

Got a kick for a dog beggin' for love
I gotta have my suffering
So that I can have my cross
I know a cat named Easter
He says will you ever learn 
You're just an empty cage girl if you kill the bird

I've been looking for a savior in these dirty streets
Looking for a savior beneath these dirty sheets
I've been raising up my hands
Drive another nail in
Got enough guilt to start 
My own religion

Why do we crucify ourselves
Every day I crucify myself
And Nothing I do is good enough for you
Crucify myself
Every day I crucify myself 
And my heart is sick of being in chains

Please be
Save me
I cry

Looking for a savior in these dirty streets
Looking for a savior beneath these dirty sheets
I've been raising up my hands
Drive another nail in
Where are those angels
When you need them

Why do we crucify ourselves
Every day I crucify myself
And Nothing I do is good enough for you
Crucify myself
Every day I crucify myself 
And my heart is sick of being in chains

Why do we ...
... chains ... 
Crucify ourselves
Everyday 

Never going back again
Crucify myself again 
You know
Never going back again to
Crucify myself
Everyday
