Criminal by Fiona Apple

I've been a bad, bad girl
I've (1)________ (2)________________ 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 (3)________ it
I've done wrong and I (4)__________ (5)____________ for my sins
I've (6)________ to you cause I (7)________ (8)________________ to be true
And I (9)________ don't know (10)__________ I can begin

What I need is a (11)________ 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 (12)________ knew of love

Heaven help me for the way I am
Save me from (13)__________ evil deeds
Before I get (14)________ done
I know tomorrow brings the consequence at hand
But I keep (15)____________ this day
Like the next will (16)__________ come
Oh help me, but don't (17)________ me to deny it
I (18)__________ (19)______________ myself of all these 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 (20)________ 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 (21)________ to pay
Give me room to lay the law and let me go
I gotta make a play
To make my lover stay
So (22)________ would an angel say?
The devil (23)__________ to know
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 (24)____________ against
Because he's all I ever knew of love
