It Comes Creeping

It comes creeping
Takes you from behind
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
And 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) it comes creeping
(And I see you there without it)
(And I see you there without it) it comes creeping
(And your shoulders speaking for you)

It comes creeping
It comes creeping
