Creeping Death

Verse 1

Casket full of truth and lies

Spilling over from my eyes

I'll take you with me when I die

Burying in your hollow shell

I can hear your funeral bell

As the worms begin to swell, uh

Chorus

Now I, here I, there, oh, everywhere

A piece of me is always near, yeah

Near your bed, 'neath your chair

A piece of death is always there, yeah

Verse 2

Now I lay me down to rest

Pray and curse the Lord of death

Now up my back I feel death's hand creep

Watch my soul ascend in steam

Kiss the sun and breathe the scream

As death's cold fingers tear at me, uh

Chorus

Now I, here I, there, oh, everywhere

A piece of me is always near, yeah

Near your bed, 'neath your chair

A piece of death is always there, yeah

Bridge

(Death, death, death)

(Death, death, death)

Verse 3

Take me underneath the bridge

Drag me to the river's edge

Drag me down into the filthy bed, yeah

Take a ride inside my head

Take my life and break my will

Take my soul and feed it to the worms

Feed them 'til they eat themselves

Now up my back I feel death's hand creep, creep, creep

Creep, creep, creep

Outro

Creep, yeah

Creep, yeah

Creep, yeah
