[Verse 1]
Do you really wanna come with me?
It's hard to see from the eyes of a stranger
Are you ready for the fear to leave
So that you can breathe and not live with the danger?

[Pre-Chorus]
But there is always something fighting its way back in
But there is always something pushing me to give in
Do you really wanna make believe
And try to achieve a little break from the anger?

[Chorus]
I should've been good
I should've been down
I couldn't let go
What could I do?
I can take it all away, the feelings
Break apart the pain and start the healing
I should've withstood
I shouldn't bow down
I couldn't get through
What could I do?
I can take it all away, the feelings
Break apart the pain and start the healing

[Verse 2]
Do you really wanna prowl with me?
This travesty cuts sharp like a razor
Are you ready for your scars to bleed?
You will succeed pulling out the invaders

[Pre-Chorus]
But there is always something fighting its way back in
But there is always something pushing me to give in
Do you really wanna make believe
And try to achieve a little break from the anger?

[Chorus]
I should've been good
I should've been down
I couldn't let go
What could I do?
I can take it all away, the feelings
Break apart the pain and start the healing
I should've withstood
I shouldn't bow down
I couldn't get through
What could I do?
I can take it all away, the feelings
Break apart the pain and start the healing

[Bridge]
Everything I'm feeling burst into flames
Looking at a soul that's broken and strained
Every night the wish is always the same
Keep on hoping that I don't go insane

[Refrain]
The more you fall for it
The more it starts to stick
The more you fall for it
The more it starts to stick
The more you fall for it
The more it starts to stick
The more you fall for it
It's never gonna quit

[Chorus]
I should've been good
I should've been down
I couldn't let go
What could I do?
I can take it all away, the feelings
Break apart the pain and start the healing
I should've withstood
I shouldn't bow down
I couldn't get through
What could I do?
I can take it all away, the feelings
Break apart the pain and start the healing

[Outro]
Break apart the pain and start the healing
Break apart the pain and start the healing

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.”
