lyrics

I have a cat named Easter, he says will you ever learn
You’re just an empty cage girl if you kill the bird
I got a kick for a dog, who’s begging for love
I gotta have my suffering, have my cross

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
Why do we crucify
Why do we crucify ourselves
My heart is sick of being in chains

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

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
Everyday I crucify myself
Nothing I do is good enough for you
Crucify myself
Everyday I crucify myself
My heart is sick of being
I said 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
Just what God needs
Where are those angels when you need them

The Fever Fold
by Red Steers

Red Steers makes very inventive electronic music. It's layered with multiple vocals layers that are used in a way that I haven't quite heard before. Shaun D Wilson

Glass EP
by Glass Vaults

Glass Vaults produce hypnotic ethereal tunes that are filled with polyrhythms which when played live can somehow be turned into absolute bangers. Shaun D Wilson
