Every Single Night by Fiona Apple

Every single night, I endure the flight
Of little wings of white-flamed butterflies in my brain
These ideas of mine percolate the mind
Trickle (1)________ the spine
Swarm the belly, swelling to a blaze
That's when the pain comes in
Like a second skeleton
Trying to fit beneath the skin
I can't fit the feelings in, no
Every single night's a light with my brain
What do I say to her?
Why do I say it to her?
What does she think of me?
That I'm not what I ought to be
That I'm what I try not to be
It's got to be somebody else's fault
I can't get caught
If what I am is (2)________ I am, 'cause I does what I does
Then brother, get back
'Cause my breast's (3)__________ bust open
The rib is the shell and heart is the yolk
And I just need a meal for us both to choke on
Every single night's a fight with my brain
I just want to feel everything
I just want to feel everything
I just want to feel everything
So I'm gonna try to be still now
Gonna renounce the mill a little while and
If we had a double king size bed
We could move in it and I'd soon forget
If (4)________ I am is (5)________ I am, 'cause I does what I does
And maybe I'd relax, let my breast just bust open
My heart's made of parts of all that's (6)____________ me
And that's why the devil just can't get around me
Every (7)____________ night's alright
Every single night's a fight
And every single fight's (8)______________ with my brain
I just want to feel everything
I just want to feel everything
I just (9)________ to feel everything
I just want to feel everything
