You Keep Me Crawling Lyrics
[Verse 1]
If I keep, if I keep forgiving
Maybe I'll believe that you never meant for life to hurt for me
Maybe I'll recover if you'd set me free
[Pre-Chorus]
But why does it make me feel like I am weak and small?
Why do I keep begging like the animal?
Maybe it's because I need to serve someone
[Chorus]
So you keep me crawling on my knees
Oh, you keep me crawling on my knees
Oh, you keep me crawling on my knees
Lord, you keep me crawling on my knees
Lord, you keep me crawling on my knees
Lord, you keep me crawling
Oh, you keep me crawling
Lord, you keep me crawling, mmm
[Verse 2]
If I keep, if I keep confessing
Maybe I'll believe that you never meant for love to hurt for me
Maybe you could feel a little sympathy
[Pre-Chorus]
But why do I make you feel like you are big and strong?
Why do you keep hunting like an animal?
Maybe it's because you need to own someone
If I keep, if I keep forgiving
Maybe I'll believe that you never meant for life to hurt for me
Maybe I'll recover if you'd set me free
[Pre-Chorus]
But why does it make me feel like I am weak and small?
Why do I keep begging like the animal?
Maybe it's because I need to serve someone
[Chorus]
So you keep me crawling on my knees
Oh, you keep me crawling on my knees
Oh, you keep me crawling on my knees
Lord, you keep me crawling on my knees
Lord, you keep me crawling on my knees
Lord, you keep me crawling
Oh, you keep me crawling
Lord, you keep me crawling, mmm
[Verse 2]
If I keep, if I keep confessing
Maybe I'll believe that you never meant for love to hurt for me
Maybe you could feel a little sympathy
[Pre-Chorus]
But why do I make you feel like you are big and strong?
Why do you keep hunting like an animal?
Maybe it's because you need to own someone
[Chorus]
So, you keep me crawling on my knees
Oh, you keep me crawling on my knees
Oh, you keep me crawling on my knees
Lord, you keep me crawling on my knees
Lord, you keep me crawling on my knees
Lord, you keep me crawling
Lord, you keep me crawling
Lord, you keep me crawling
Lord, you keep me crawling
Lord, you keep me crawling on my knees
[Outro]
If I stop, if I stop believing maybe you will see
Giving in to love should never hurt for me
Giving in to love should set me free
So, you keep me crawling on my knees
Oh, you keep me crawling on my knees
Oh, you keep me crawling on my knees
Lord, you keep me crawling on my knees
Lord, you keep me crawling on my knees
Lord, you keep me crawling
Lord, you keep me crawling
Lord, you keep me crawling
Lord, you keep me crawling
Lord, you keep me crawling on my knees
[Outro]
If I stop, if I stop believing maybe you will see
Giving in to love should never hurt for me
Giving in to love should set me free

What did AURORA say about "You Keep Me Crawling"?
Genius Answer
I wrote “You Keep Me Crawling” and “Giving In to the Love” around the same time. I was just humming the chorus melody all day and I decided that it needed to be a song. It came like puke out of my mouth. It’s kind of a happy accident of a child.
