    Lyrics
    with your E's
    and your ease
    and I do one more
    need a lip gloss boost
    in your america
    is it God's
    is it your's
    sweet saliva
    with your E's
    and your ease
    and I do one more
    I know we're dying
    and there's no sign of a parachute
    we scream in cathedrals
    why can't it be beautiful
    why does there
    gotta be a sacrifice
    just say yes
    you little arsonist
    you're so sure you can save
    every hair on my chest
    just say yes
    you little arsonist
    with your E's
    and your ease
    and I do one more
    well I know we're dying
    and there's no sign of a parachute
    in this chapel
    little chapel of love
    can't we get a little grace
    and some elegance
    no we scream in cathedrals
    why can't it be beautiful
    why does there
    gotta be a sacrifice

    Why isn't this woman talked about in the same sentence with greats like Billy Joel, Ray Charles, Elton John, etc.? Her piano playing is more often than not rhythmically quite disconnected from her singing. And both rhythmically and compositionally complex. It's like she has two brains, one for her mouth and one for her hands. Absolutely otherworldly.

      That's a good question. But I think tori is... screw it, I'll be frank. She's smarter, she's more talented, and she's uncompromising. She doesn't sell out and she doesn't roll over. Tori is a goddess. Those men are mortals.

    What starts as a great groove turns into an amazingly complex and dramatic masterpiece. This is in my top three of my favorite live musical performances. All on point and Tori's vocals are so absolutely perfect and emotive. You can feel her pain of that miscarriage and her anger at God. Her piano playing on this is just so complex that the fact she can sing at all is amazing. But then she pulls out her secret weapon: the best vocal and breath control in the business. It just melts me every time- Brilliance!!!

      Matt and Jon have such a groove going on this tune. I do appreciate the soundscape guitar because it doesn't cover up any of Tori's absolutely astounding piano. But adds some texture to it all. This woman is one of the quirkiest yet most immensely talented people I have ever seen or heard. Her voice and breath control is simply otherworldly. Like she's got some alien DNA in there. Stunning!

    4:29 The piano bridge: OMG this part is so haunting...The way she goes off, omg. She has spoken about having visions of an entity, which inspired her to write this song. But whatever it is that she is directly lashing out at during this part, is perhaps the one to have made the "sacrifice"of taking her "little girl" causing her to have a miscarriage. HOLY FUCK.

      she's having a go at God, "I know you understand the way I feel (God gave up "his" son in sacrifice) God knows how painful, and she's asking why knowing the pain he took her little girl. the defiance of this woman is admirable.
