[Verse 1]
What you gonna do?
And what you gonna feel when suddenly I slip away?
Almost am a ghost of who I used to be yesterday
How you gonna touch?
And how will you collect the beauty when it turns to dust?
Everything we make, the cells we generate, are both of us

[Chorus]
Please be aware that I am you
Nothing could be more certain
This ain't the time, the place for us to understand this life

[Verse 2]
Hold you in my arms and hold you in my gaze
Save you with my dying breath
Underneath this earth, I'd resurrect your soul and nothing less
Sorry for the space
If I could fill the void, an ocean wouldn't hold the love
And everything I have and all I ever was is not enough

[Chorus]
Please be aware that I am you
Nothing could be more certain
This ain't the time, the place for us to understand this life

[Bridge]
I will protect you
I will protect you
I will protect you
I will protect you
I will protect you
I will protect you
I will protect you

[Chorus]
Please be aware that I am you
Nothing could be more certain
This ain't the time, the place for us to understand this life

[Outro]
This ain't the time, this ain't the place
This ain't the time, this ain't the place
This ain't the time, this ain't the place
This ain't the time, this ain't the place
This ain't the time, this ain't the place
This ain't the time, this ain't the place
This ain't the time, this ain't the place
I will protect you
I will protect you
I will protect you
I will protect you
I will protect you
I will protect you
I will protect you
I will protect you
I will protect you
I will protect you
I will protect you
I will protect you
I will protect you

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.”
