play the 5-chords, means only the two low strings):
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 bowl in my stomach. I got a desert in my mouth.
figures that my courage would chose 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 ever-y-y
day I crucify myself. And nothing I do is good
enough for you. Crucify myself ever-y-y
day I crucify myself. My heart is sick of being
Said my heart is sick of being in
Chai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ains o-o-o-oh.
Chai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ains o-o-o-oh.
Got a kick for a dog begging for love
I gotta have my sufferings 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.
(Chorus)
Please believe Save me
I cry-a-ay-aaaahay ahay ahayn
(Bridge1)
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)
Never going back again no
to crucify myself (again) - every day
