Criminal by Fiona Apple

I've been a bad, bad girl
I've been careless with a delicate man
And it's a sad, sad world
When a girl will break a boy
Just because she can
Don't you tell me to deny it
I've done wrong and I (1)__________ suffer for my sins
I've come to you cause I need (2)________________ to be true
And I just don't (3)________ where I can begin

What I need is a good defense
Cause I'm feeling like a criminal
And I need to be redeemed
To the one I've sinned against
Because he's all I ever knew of love

Heaven help me for the way I am
Save me from these evil deeds
Before I get them done
I know tomorrow brings the consequence at hand
But I keep living this day
Like the next will never come
Oh help me, but don't (4)________ me to deny it
I gotta cleanse myself of all (5)__________ lies
Till I'm good enough for him
I got a lot to lose
And I'm betting high
So I'm begging you
Before it ends, just tell me where to begin
What I need is a good defense
Cause I'm feeling like a criminal
And I need to be redeemed
To the one I've sinned against
Because he's all I ever knew of love

Let me know the way
Before there's hell to pay
Give me room to lay the law and let me go
I gotta make a play
To (6)________ my (7)__________ stay
So what would an angel say?
The devil wants to know
What I need is a good defense
Cause I'm (8)______________ like a criminal
And I need to be redeemed
To the one I've (9)____________ against
Because he's all I ever (10)________ of love
