Roger Joseph Manning, Jr. - Creeple People lyrics

From the streets of your town To those palacial estates They wait in the wings For you to seal your own fate And when you make a mistake As we do time to time They'll be the first to arrive at the scene of a crime They'll pick you up off your knees And march you back into line You think your so cleaver we know your lost We'd all like to live forever but at what cost Creeple People love to live inside your head Once they know you're frightened you're as good as dead They lie right to your face and sneak up from behind Just do as your told we'll get along just fine Creeple People live to turn your world around No tellin' right from wrong a smile becomes a frown They've all been scared away you've not a single friend Creeple People love to make you feel like them Alone Now your dressed to the nines With a false sense of pride But you're naked as sin And you've got no place to hide One look in the mirror And you run for your life You try to reach for the brakes But you skate on thin ice You shout out "whatever, It's no great loss" But you're in for nasty weather upon your cross Creeple People like to live inside your head Once they see you're lonely you're as good as dead Body snatchin' brainwashed until you crack You'll be walkin' hand in hand when they stab you In the back Creeple People have to have your peace of mind And you'll swear you see a difference cuz your faith Is blind I long to be that age again Safe from tomorrow I'd fall a sleep for a 1000 years And wake up to find that everyone's been blown Away I'd like to live forever They'd all like to live forever We'd all like to live forever But at what cost Won't you come down off your cross Creeple People like to live inside your head Whisper in your ear and all you see is red The doctor puts you under you commit the crime Just do as your told we'll get along just fine Creeple People only want to take control Feed upon your fear and then upon your soul Eats you up inside because they won't come out Creeple People love to make you scream and shout I long to be that age again Safe from tomorrow I long to be that age again
