"It Comes Creeping" lyrics
It comes creeping
Takes you from behind
It never calls you by your name
But summons you for slaughter
Just a taste
And you're imbibed
Left beaten, curled up
'Neath its parasitic laughter
It does smother
Makes you feel at home
Then tells you "'Cause your heart is mine
You need not seek another"
Glance into its eyes
And you're left like hard cold stone
Once you crack, ensures you crumble
Even in pieces, still it smothers
Better keep an eye or half
On nothing but this stalker
Before it skins you, hangs you out
And wears you like a sweater
It comes creeping
It comes creeping
And I see you there without it
And I see you there without it
And I see you there without it
And your shoulders speaking for you
It comes creeping
It comes creeping
Takes you from behind
It never calls you by your name
But summons you for slaughter
Just a taste
And you're imbibed
Left beaten, curled up
'Neath its parasitic laughter
It does smother
Makes you feel at home
Then tells you "'Cause your heart is mine
You need not seek another"
Glance into its eyes
And you're left like hard cold stone
Once you crack, ensures you crumble
Even in pieces, still it smothers
Better keep an eye or half
On nothing but this stalker
Before it skins you, hangs you out
And wears you like a sweater
It comes creeping
It comes creeping
And I see you there without it
And I see you there without it
And I see you there without it
And your shoulders speaking for you
It comes creeping
It comes creeping
