“Can't shake the feeling that I'm not alone”
— A line from "Red Shirt" that inspired the title of the album
Creeper
Moonlight glows
I’m wrapped in satin dreams
He moves silently, patiently, secretly
closer to my feet
Slowly he creeps
and neither of us know
What’s about to happen
panic, fear, blood in dark shadows
Creeper you’re never gonna live
Never meant to hurt
Never meant to kill
Never even knew I had wrath to give
At my pillow
he moves in thread by thread
He’s faster now, purposeful
carefully moves up to my head
He touched my hair
I scream and we both know
Primally, adrenaline gave him a fatal blow
Creeper, you’re never gonna live
Never meant to hurt
Never meant to kill
Never even knew I had wrath to give
Creeper, I had to take a stand
You broke into my room
Raised your weapon high
Now am I the one who got blood on her hands
How am I the one?
How am I the one?
How am I the one who’s got blood on her hands?
Marching Along
Follow in a single file
Disobey only once and awhile
You’re the boots on the ground
Lock your cadence to their sound
Take the easy way to a hard life
Marching along
Marching along
Marching along
But their intentions are crouching in the dark
You’re blind to the bigger plan
They’re selling you a boogie man
Just follow in the perfect line
They’ll lead you to the grand design
Take the easy way to a hard life
Marching along
Marching along
Marching along
But their intentions are crouching in the dark
Unquestioned
Unchallenged
Move forward & back again
New order
Unchallenged
Move forward & back again
Marching along
Marching along
Marching along
Marching along
Marching along
Marching along
Marching along
But their intentions are crouching in the dark
Do It Like That
You know it when you see it
A smile shaped into a yes
Sways to follow what you’re laying down
Like a game of Simon Says
When she goes like that
Then you do it like that
Then you do it like that
Then you do it like that
When she goes like that
Then you do it like that
Then you do it like that
Then you do it like that
You know it when you feel it
A rumble in your chest
Crinkled nose is in a tantric frown
Your body does the rest
When she goes like that
Then you do it like that
Then you do it like that
Then you do it like that
When she goes like that
Then you do it like that
Then you do it like that
Then you do it like that
Do it like that
Do it like that
Do it like that
Do it like that
When she goes like that
Then you do it like that
Then you do it like that
Then you do it like that
You Can't Take Me Down
We look the same
I don’t fit in
We try to talk
Pissed off again
You spit your words
with saber tooth
Why even try
We both know the truth
Black eyes
Blue heart
White lies
You can’t take me down
You can’t shake me now
You can’t take me down
You can’t take me down
You can’t shake me now
You can’t take me down
You pick a fight
I hold a grudge
The women chant
I want to run
Invite me in
I’m feeling used
Provide a vest
I still refuse
Black eyes
Blue heart
White lies
You can’t take me down
You can’t shake me now
You can’t take me down
You can’t take me down
You can’t shake me now
You can’t take me down
Why did I come back
Every minute was filled with dread
Locked in my room
I was hiding in my bed
When you talk you growl
If you try to stop your face turns red
How can you keep on getting in my head
You can’t take me down
You can’t shake me now
You can’t take me down
You can’t take me down
You can’t take me down
You can’t take me down
You can’t take me down
Red Shirt
Home from work, street is blocked
Sirens flashing, doors locked
Helicopter circles the sky
Sheriff Taylor tells us why
There’s a young man who ditched this car and he ran away
He’s out on bail, but he robbed the Baker’s house today
Red shirt
Blue shorts
He’s on the run
Gotta find the man
Red shirt
Blue shorts
Not safe at home
Gotta find the man
I try distraction, scroll my phone
Can’t shake the feeling I’m not alone
Dogs barking, Sheriff’s back
Came with the K9s and more feedback
They spotted him from the chopper, but he got away
We’re trailing him by foot, and I’ve got backup on the way
Red shirt
Blue shorts
He’s on the run
Gotta find the man
Red shirt
Blue shorts
Not safe at home
Gotta find the man
Red shirt
Blue shorts
He’s got a gun
Gotta find the man
Red shirt
Blue shorts
Not safe at home
Gotta find the man
Can’t shake the feeling.
Can’t shake the feeling that I’m not alone.
Red shirt
Blue shorts
He’s on the run
Gotta find the man
Red shirt
Blue shorts
Not safe at home
Gotta find the man
I tried and I tried but I can’t shake the feeling
The shadows and darkness the trees are concealing
I tried and I tried but I can’t shake the feeling
The feelings of helplessness he is revealing
