Tori Amos

I saw Tori Amos last night. What a show. The sound was PERFECT, and the lights were amazing (even though I often closed my eyes to simply enjoy the sound).

I bought the tickets on a whim knowing that she would be worth seeing, and I am certainly glad I did. I wasn't a huge fan before, but now I look forward to exploring her vast discography.

This song particularly stuck on my head:

Tori Amos is one of my favorite artists. Funny, I've setting my iTunes to her playlist those days. Must have known her vibe was in the air.

Every finger in the room is pointing at me
I wanna spit in their faces
Then I get affraid 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 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
Nothing I do is good enough for you
Crucify myself
Every day I crucify myself
And my heart is sick of being in chains


Got a kick for a dog beggin' 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 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
Nothing I do is good enough for you
Crucify myself
Every day I crucify myself
And my heart is sick of being in chains


Please be
Save me
I cry


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


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
And my heart is sick of being in chains


Why do we ...
... chains ...
Crucify ourselves
Everyday


Never going back again
Crucify myself again
You know
Never going back again to
Crucify myself
Everyday
