Crucify - Midnite String Quartet

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

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
