Creep

I know I've mentioned this previously, but Radiohead's song "Creep" really speaks to me. Even more than the song itself sometimes is what the person singing it adds to the song. Seriously the song can take on such different meanings and tones based on the cover. I know the song is from 1992, but some how I have no real recollection of it until 3 years ago. One of the first time I remember hearing this song was at Karaoke, and then it was the David Cook's cover with his old band that really spoke to me. I actually just youtubed Creep covers and have found some real gems...all of which are SO different - including one that Prince did at Coachella in 2008. The lyrics are a bit dark, but I like dark lyrics. God bless emo which brought me dark lyrics put to catchy tunes!

Here are the lyrics:
When you were here before,
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel,
Your skin makes me cry

You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
I wish I was special
You're so fuckin' special

But I'm a creep,
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doin' here?
I don't belong here

I don't care if it hurts,
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul

I want you to notice
when I'm not around
You're so fuckin' special
I wish I was special

But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doin' here?
I don't belong here, ohhhh, ohhhh

She's running out again
She's running out
She run run run run...
run... run...

Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You're so fuckin' special
I wish I was special

But I'm a creep,
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doin' here?
I don't belong here

I don't belong here...


I really am starting to fixate on getting these lyrics tattoo on me at some point - granted that I EARN getting them.

I don't care if it hurts,
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
