[Verse 1]
I can't stand to let you win
I'm just watching you
And I don't know what to do
Feeling like a fool inside
Feeling all the love you hide
Thought you were my friend
Seems it never ends

[Pre-Chorus]
I need somebody, someone

[Chorus]
Can't somebody help me?
All I need is to be
Loved just for me

[Verse 2]
Giving you with this and that
Giving gave nothing back
It's all related to
All the things I do
Feeling like a fool inside
Seeing all the things you tried
I am nothing

[Pre-Chorus]
I need somebody, someone

[Chorus]
Can't somebody help me?
All I need is to be
Loved just for me

[Bridge]
I look, I sign
I need someone
Inside to help me out
With what I'm trying
I'm crying, I'm prying
In a pile of shit
I'm dying
I'm dying
I'm dying!

[Outro]
I need somebody! (somebody!)
Somebody! (somebody!)
Someone!
I need somebody! (somebody!)
Somebody! (somebody!)
Someone!
Someone!

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.”
