Creature Lyrics & Chords By Atreyu

Go, run away in distress
Try to hide from what's
Creeping and crawling and stabbing within!
Try to deny the turmoil inside
If you fight yourself hard enough
You'll never win any ounce of serenity
Or a calm hope at best
Or a calm hope at best
Can leave you heaving on the floor
Gasping for breath,
Are you gasping for breath?
To be left on the floor gasping for breath

You're either the person you are
Or the person you're trying, trying, trying, trying to be
Don't let the outside sway too far
From where you want to be

And at any cruel moments notice
You can ruin the best
As your body is brutally pressed
Against the confines of your tense flesh
And if you close your eyes tight enough
Then none of the bad can get, none of the bad can get in
And if you close your eyes tight enough
Then none of the light can get, none of the light can get in
The light can't get in, the light can't get in!

Boom! You scream as the light hits you
It radiates throughout your whole soul

Boom! The pain is clarity, it cleanses
And if it still fucking hurts
Then you still fucking know,
That you are still alive,
That you are still in control, if you would only take hold

Boom! The day with both hands, a death grip
And a good chance to outlive your past
Are you living free, are you living free?

You're either the person you are
Or the person you're trying, trying, trying, trying to be
Don't let the outside sway too far
From where you want to be
You're either the person you are
Or the person you're trying, trying, trying, trying to be
Don't let the outside sway too far
From where you want to be
