[Verse 1]
A man is crying, takes me to a certain place
Which I don't often find
I see a family walking, always thinking
Of being somewhere else in time

So I fall face down in a rut
I can't seem to get out of
Please wake me, please give me some of it back
The feelings I had

[Pre-Chorus]
Sometimes I wish I could be strong like you
It doesn't matter
Each time I wake, I'm somehow feeling the truth
I can't handle

[Chorus]
Let's get this party started
I'm sick of being you
You make me feel insane
We don't give to you

Let's get this party started
You make me feel insane
I want to be the one
To make myself sane

[Verse 2]
Time is ticking, it makes me feel content
With what I have inside
Constant paranoia surrounds me
Everyone I see is out to get me

So I fall face down in a rut
I can't seem to get out of
Please wake me, please give me some of it back
The feelings I had

[Pre-Chorus]
Sometimes I wish I could be strong like you
It doesn't matter
Each time I wake, I'm somehow feeling the truth
I can't handle

[Chorus]
Let's get this party started
I'm sick of being you
You make me feel insane
We don't give to you

Let's get this party started
You make me feel insane
I want to be the one
To make myself sane

[Bridge]
You make me feel insane
You make me feel insane
You make me feel insane
You make me feel insane
You make me feel insane
You make me feel insane

[Pre-Chorus]
Sometimes I wish I could be strong like you
It doesn't matter
Each time I wake, I'm somehow feeling the truth
I can't handle

[Chorus]
Let's get this party started
I'm sick of being you
You make me feel insane
We don't give to you

Let's get this party started
You make me feel insane
I want to be the one
To make myself sane

Korn

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.”
