Tori Amos "Crucify" Lyrics

little earthquakes

[@poetryofthepacificocean9820]

I'm a native Russian speaker and English is my second language, so I prefer more Russian lyrics than texts in other languages, but this song has such touching and sensitive lyrics, so I couldn't share my opinion about this song. I like the words about the cage, and the girl is a metaphor, where the cage is our body, the bird is our soul. And if we kill our bird, we will be locked in this cage forever with no hope of further life.

IT WAS 1993 WHEN I FIRST SAW THIS LADY ON MTV.....I WAS 13.....SHE SAVED MY SANITY....

[@septemberheidi8919]

@ Tina Bubnic We are the same age. I remember when Tori came out, I liked her. I couldnt appreciate the depth of despair And Humanity she emoted until maybe my 40s. 😊

[@DarkMadamX83]

She helped me lose mine. I could get lost in an album, feeling like I knew exactly what she was conveying, it was nothing like what life was.

[@ginafaithfulforsuchatimeas4185]

In my time with Jesus this song came to my mind... as I often beat myself up.. but there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. We have a savior He died for every sin we would ever commit Past present and future Help us Lord to receive your love. Anyone who may read this... Jesus love never fails It is a love that meets us where we’re at and loves us enough to turn the tables over in our life and call us to face the truth. He reveals the truth of the conditions of our heart that yes.. keeps us in chains My heart is sick of being in chains of not forgiving myself for where I fall short. Only Jesus is perfect Only he can love us perfectly His prefect kindness His perfect truth His patience His Joy He is my peace. His words transform and Renew the mind. Only Jesus can set us free and deliver us from the chains of sin and death. I was going to journal this.. but I thought I would share here.. in case someone needs to hear this. Jesus reveals and convicts the heart There is so much freedom in repentance. I got relief from pain I was in the other day.. and more relief just now... as I’m reading In Matthew right now.. when Jesus was delivered up and accused.. he said nothing to his accusers. When was the last time you were accused... or did you accuse someone else? We’re you able to stay quite in the face of your accusers? Jesus stayed quiet. Why? How often do we crucify ourselves by accusing each other? Do we respond like Jesus did? The world teaches us the louder we speak... the more we stomp our feet... that makes us tougher and stronger... Jesus demonstrates something very different. And while there is a time and a place for all things... knowing the difference can make a world a difference. When you have Jesus you have Heaven on earth... Heaven doesn’t accuse... Heaven brings the truth to earth..... there are no liars or accusers in Heaven. My prayer is we get out of our own way... stop protecting our hearts... our shame our pain.. allow Jesus to break every chain. His words are life. Read believe and receive. Jesus is the light of the world.

I moved across a country to get away from my family. I spent a month practically homeless living out of motels and now have a place but it is still a struggle out here 7 months later. I won't admit defeat and this is better than going back to being controlled. I am 34 myself with children of my own and you would think I was 14 by how I was treated.

Lyrics: "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, every day? I crucify myself and nothing I do is good enough for you I crucify myself, every day I crucify myself My heart is sick of being I said my heart is sick of being in chains, oh oh oh Chains, oh oh oh Got a kick for a dog, begging for love I gotta have myself a ring 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 and nothing I do is good enough for you I crucify myself, oh every day I crucify myself My heart is sick of being I said my heart is sick of being in chains, oh oh oh Chains, oh oh oh Please be Save me I cry Uh-huh, uh-huh 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 and nothing I do is good enough for you I crucify myself, oh every day I crucify myself And my heart is sick of being I said my heart is sick of being in chains, oh oh oh Chains, why do we Chains Crucify ourselves Every day Ah-ah, ah, ah, ah Oh, chains Oh, yeah Yeah, chains Ah-ah, ah, ah, ah Never going back again, oh Crucify myself again, you know Never going back again to crucify myself, every day" Love is the Only Engine of Survival

I Remember Back In Tha 90's I Seen Tori Amos and Was Aware That She Was Talented , But For Some Reason I Didn't Go Any Further Into Her Musical Library , Some T(Y)me Has Passed and Here I Am As If I Have Visited A 90's Kid's Gravestone , It Seems To Me She Is Angry At Tha Creator Of Thus Expanding Universe , and Spitting Into The Face Of God As If It Was His Fault His Onli Child Got Murdered , You See Jesus Is A Gift , A Gift To Humanity Forever OR As Long As It Can Survive , As She Sings "chains" With "crucify ourselves" It Is Dark As Fuck , A Dirty Bed That I DO NOT Want To Visit , I Think I Will PERHAPS Look Around Her Metaphysical Cemetary , Possibly In Tha Future , But For Now Lest Jus Shaye , Thaz Enough Venom and Rage For One Nite ...

another mirror 😔 "crucified" by traumas (first time r4ped maybe at 12 years by people around my age until later abused by an adult when i was 17/18) "crucified" by these evil people in this horror house, who always cause very loud noises and that aggressive dog-rat of some of them which is very loud. It has bitten my pants, fell back so it missed my leg (this time, was bitten too as i was in school) "crucified" by the diagnosis which came with the new year: Multiple Sklerosis Sadly, depression has become much more so always fail to save me from this hell called "life". The c u t s are not deep enough 😖 And even "crucified" by the ignorance of the "surroundings". They act as if i am not with an illness that still cannot be healed. Heaven never cared and never helped. Cried when i was 12, thought about mum and "papa", prayed they would stay together. They have been divorced. And i lost religion.
