Slow and steady,
subtle yet itching,
they're creeping in,
they're creeping in,

the emotions suppressed, the silenced screams,
the fear so dark, the love so clean,
the promises forgotten, and trust so bleak,
the hope still alight, the innocence that gleams,

twirling around,
twisting in,
all those words,
out of rhythmic molds,

they're creeping in,
oh, they're creeping in.
