Track 11
Creep (Reimagination)
Alienation becomes self-erasure as a person who feels fundamentally out of place begs to become worthy of another world.
Creep (Reimagination) is the closing track of Reimagination.
Context
Inspired by “Creep” by Radiohead. The new lyrics closely echo or paraphrase lyrical ideas from the reference song. No original recording or intentionally retained melody was used.
Lyrics
I walked into your light, Thinking I could disappear. Your world was made of silver words, Mine was rust and fear. Every mirror cuts my skin, Shows the fractures deep within. And I’m choking on the truth— I was never meant for you. Why does your smile Feel like a funeral hymn? ’Cause I’m out of place, I don’t belong here. I’m the crack in the glass, You pretend not to see. I’m out of place, A ghost in your atmosphere— I would tear off my skin Just to feel like I’m real. You shine like sacred fire, And I’m crawling in the ash. I tried to learn the way you breathe, But I break with every gasp. I don’t want to fade away, But I don’t know how to stay. You touch the stars with steady hands, I just sink into the sand. Why does your voice Feel like a distant prayer? ’Cause I’m out of place, I don’t belong here. I’m the blood on the page That no one wants to read. I’m out of place, A fracture in your sphere— I would carve out my heart Just to know I’m alive. If I were holy, if I were pure, Would you let me through your door? If I could steal a different face, Would I finally earn this place? Break me. Replace me. Build me from your light. Erase me. Deface me. I’ll never be what’s right. I’m out of place, I don’t belong here. Just a shadow in the crowd That no one ever sees. I’m out of place, Still begging to draw near— I would burn in your sun Just to feel like I’m real. I was never real.
