Crucify (Live) [Montreux 1992]

[Verse 1]

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

[Pre-Chorus 1]

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

[Chorus]

Why do we

Crucify ourselves

Every day

I crucify myself

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, oh oh yeah

Chains

[Verse 2]

Got a kick for a dog

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"

[Pre-Chorus 2]

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

[Chorus]

Why do we

Crucify ourselves

Every day

I crucify myself

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, oh oh yeah

Chains

[Bridge]

Please be

Save me

I cry

[Pre-Chorus 3]

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?

[Chorus]

Why do we

Crucify ourselves

Every day

I crucify myself

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

In chains, oh yes

In chains

[Outro]

I'm never going back again, no

To crucify myself again, you know

I'm never going back again to crucify myself

Everyday, yes
