[Intro]
What's your lie?

[Verse 1]
Warm glance, a fake smile
Eyes meet, your mind runs wild
This game you play, I like in a way
You expect to grab a child
You think I'm innocent, not wild
Take me, let's see how much I'm tamed

[Chorus]
Never thought a little boy like me could ever know
How to embrace your body while in turn embrace your soul
I'll show you feelings, pleasure, pain is in my control
Let your body laying there, red flesh, dripping of fear

[Verse 2]
Warm lips, a big smile
Hatred runs through your insides
This game you play, intimidation each day
You think it's all a lie
They want to destroy your life
Anger twisted your life into pain

[Bridge]
I wish I could take control
I wish I could let go
I wish I could break this mold
Inside I'm so fucking cold

[Interlude]
I'm cumming, I'm cumming, I'm cumming on you
I'm cumming, I'm cumming, I'm cumming on you
I'm cumming, I'm cumming, I'm cumming on you
I'm cumming, I'm cumming, I'm cumming

[Verse 3]
Warm glance, a fake smile
Eyes meet, your mind runs wild
This game we play, I like in a way
You expect to grab a child
You think I'm innocent, not wild
Take me, let's see how much I'm tamed

[Chorus]
Never thought a little boy like me could ever know
How to embrace your body while in turn embrace your soul
I'll show you feelings, pleasure, pain is in my control
Let your body laying there, red flesh, dripping of fear

[Bridge]
I wish I could lose control
I wish I could let go
I wish I could break this mold
Inside I'm so fucking cold
Wipe this aside so the truth unfolds

[Outro]
I am done
That was so fun
This one's real
How'd it feel, it feel when
I was cumming, I was cumming, I was cumming on you?
I was cumming, I was cumming, I was cumming on you
I was cumming, I was cumming, I was cumming on you
I was cumming, was cumming, was cumming on you
I'm cumming, I'm cumming, I'm cumming on you
I'm cumming, I'm cumming, I'm cumming on you
I'm cumming, I'm cumming, I'm cumming on you
I'm cumming, I'm cumming, I'm cumming on you

Bakersfield friends James “Munky” Shaffer, Reginald “Fieldy” Arvizu and David Silveria formed the funk-rock band LAPD in 1989 and moved to Los Angeles with another friend Brian “Head” Welch as their roadie. Later, with Welch as second guitarist, the band named themselves Creep and recorded a demo with pal Ross Robinson.

However, when Shaffer and Welch visited family in Bakersfield, they met Jonathan Davis who added a darker, goth-tinged edge to the band’s heavy groove. Robinson

The band wasn’t dark yet; it had, like, killer grooves and good riffs, but there was some happy edge to it. And when (Davis) walked into the room, it went dark and goth. Basically, during the first song, to audition in the rehearsal room, he started freaking the hell out [laughs]. You couldn’t hear his voice, but you felt chills all over your body, and it was instantly like, “Oh my God, yeah – he’s the one.”
