about

This is the track where I began to develop the characters.

lyrics

Oh I have the right of passage
And I have the current behind me
For day and night I have rowed

Since starting my journey on this boat

Courage of the heart
And courage of the mind
Courage of the soul
My courage is hard to find

Courage of the heart
And courage of the mind
Courage of the soul
My courage is hard to find

I offered you and you had turned me down
Though we had another chance to see another land
Mind you I had brought everything that we would need
I guess I'm on my own, I guess it's all up to me

Let me tell you a story about a human they call The Spectaculator
One day he decided to leave his home
By the river and go on an adventure
No one was eager to join him so he set sail all on his own
Bringing only what he would need to survive
Little did he know what was just around the bend waiting for him

I am the Creep I am the Creep
The one who waits for you
I am the Creep I am the Creep
I'll never let you through
I am the Creep I am the Creep
I will destroy your soul
I am the Creep I am the Creep
Say goodbye to all you know

What do you think that I am weak
What do you think that I am meek
You should know I've been around
You should know I'll put you down

What do you think that I am weak
What do you think that I am meek
You should know you're going down
All the way down to the ground

I am the Creep I am the Creep
I'll make you change your tone
I am the Creep I am the Creep
Let go of all you own

The Creep captured the Spectaculator
Capsizing his vessel and taking everything for his own
The Spectaculator would remain unconscious
Lying on the floor of the cage of the Creep
It was only a matter of time before the Creep would return
From cataloging his booty that he had taken

Oh what's this ... a coltsfoot rock
Oooh, a Berwick cockle
Is that a curly wurly
This one's got Lardy scones for days
All these savory nibbles
I just don't know what to do with myself

I have to find a way to escape
This cage of the creep
And take what's mine
I have to find a way to escape
This cage of the creep
And take what's mine
I have to find a way to escape
This cage of the creep
And take what's mine
I have to find a way to escape
This cage of the creep
And take what's mine

Ah the battle's about to begin
Ah it's time to meet your end

You think this is a challenge for me
But I'm here to tell you otherwise
Your only hope is to run from me
Else I'll be your demise

Anywhere you go
Anyone you know
You'll watch your back knowing I'm behind you
Anywhere you go
Anyone you know
You'll have to live knowing I'm hunting you

I'm done with this trial
I'm done with your vial
It's time to move on
Before I am gone
I'll see you again
I'll be ready then
So then I must train
Until you've been slain
