[Verse 1]
You bumped into me
I was down, and you took me up past the ceiling
You are the disease
I'm the remedy that numbs all your feelings
You come looking for me
I'm the only one that keeps you sound
Bring it down to your knees
'Cause I'm the only one that makes you, you, you, you

[Chorus]
Take me
Please, take me
It's the only way
Please, take me

[Verse 2]
You came after me
I'm not worth anything if I'm not inside you
Only you can truly see
All the hell you put me through and the vicious feeding
Can't really be free
'Cause every time I run away you hunt me down
I can't ever blame me
'Cause every time I turn around it's you, you, you, it's you

[Chorus]
Take me
Please, take me
It's the only way
Please, take me

[Bridge]
I feel it calling, I feel it holding me
It's taking everything I love away from me
I feel it ripping, I feel it scarring me
That shit has made me blind to all reality
I feel it calling
I feel it calling
It's calling me
Go away, away
Go away, away

[Chorus]
Take me
Please, take me
It's the only way
Please, take me
Take me
Please, take me
It's the only way
Please, take me

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.”
