Crucify Lyrics - Little Earthquakes - Tori Amos

Every finger in the room is pointing at me 

I want to spit in their faces then I get afraid 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 saviour in these dirty streets 

Looking for a saviour 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 

I crucify myself every day 

I crucify myself and my heart is sick of being 

I said my heart is sick of being in chains 

Chains

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Got a kick for a dog begging for love 

I got to 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 saviour in these dirty streets 

Looking for a saviour 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 

I crucify myself every day 

I crucify myself and 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 saviour in these dirty streets 

Looking for a saviour 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 

I crucify myself every day 

I crucify myself and my heart is sick of being 

I said my heart is sick of being in chains 

Chains 

Why do we in chains 

Why do we crucify ourselves 

Crucify ourselves every day 

Why do we crucify ourselves 

Why do we crucify ourselves 

Chains 

Why do we crucify ourselves 

Chains 

Why do we crucify ourselves 

I'm never going back again to crucify myself again you know 

Why do we crucify ourselves 

I'm never going back again to crucify myself again every day
