Crucify
Tori Amos
Every finger in the room is pointing at me
I wanna spit in their faces, then I get afraid of 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 underneath 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
Nothing I do is good enough for you
Crucify myself
Every day, I crucify myself
My heart is sick of being
I said my heart is sick of being in
Chains, chains
Got a kick for a dog who's begging 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 underneath 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
Nothing I do is good enough for you
Crucify myself
Every day, I crucify myself
My heart is sick of being
I said my heart is sick of being in
Chains, chains
Please be, save me, I cry
Looking for a savior in these dirty streets
Looking for a savior underneath 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
Nothing I do is good enough for you
Crucify myself
Every day, I crucify myself
My heart is sick of being
I said my heart is sick of being in
Chains, chains
Why do we crucify ourselves?
Why do we, yeah, chains
Crucify ourselves every day
No, chains, chains
Never going back again
Oh, crucify myself again
You know, never going back again
To crucify myself, every day
