[Intro: Jonathan Davis & (Amy Lee)]
I want to bring up Amy Lee from Evanescence, right now
You're too sweet
We thought that this would be a cool song to do together so..
Y'all enjoy

[Verse 1: Jonathan Davis & Amy Lee]
Somethin' takes a part of me
Something lost and never seen
Every time I start to believe
Something's raped and taken from me, from me

[Verse 2: Jonathan Davis & Amy Lee]
Life's gotta always be messin' with me (You wanna see the light)
Can't they chill and let me be free (So do I)
Can't I take away all this pain (You wanna see the light)
I try to every night, all in vain, in vain (In vain)

[Pre-Chorus: Jonathan Davis & Amy Lee]
Sometimes I cannot take this place
Sometimes it's my life I can't taste
Sometimes I cannot feel my face
You'll never see me fall from grace

[Chorus: Jonathan Davis & Amy Lee]
Somethin' takes a part of me
You and I were meant to be
A cheap ... for me to lay
Something takes a part of me

[Verse 3: Jonathan Davis & Amy Lee]
Feelin' like a freak on a leash (You wanna see the light)
Feelin' like I have no release (So do I)
How many times have I felt diseased (You wanna see the light)
Nothing in my life is free, is free

[Pre-Chorus: Jonathan Davis & Amy Lee]
Sometimes I cannot take this place
Sometimes it's my life I can't taste
Sometimes I cannot feel my face
You'll never see me fall from grace

[Chorus: Jonathan Davis & Amy Lee]
Somethin' takes a part of me
You and I were meant to be
A cheap ... for me to lay
Somethin' takes a part of me

[Bridge: Jonathan Davis & Amy Lee]
Go! (Harmonizing)
Go! (Harmonizing)
Go! (Harmonizing)
Go! (Harmonizing)
Go! (Harmonizing)
Go! (Harmonizing)
Go! (Harmonizing)
Go! (Harmonizing)
Go! (Harmonizing)
Go! (Harmonizing)
Go! (Harmonizing)
Go! (Harmonizing)

[Chorus: Jonathan Davis & Amy Lee]
Somethin' takes a part of me
You and I were meant to be
A cheap ... for me to lay
Somethin' takes a part of me

[Outro: Jonathan Davis & Amy Lee]
Part of me
Part of me
Part of me

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.”
