Creature in the Black Night Lyrics
Guilty hands can't hide their plans
Once I got a hold on you, I won't let go
On your knees, you'll understand
Nothing stays the same except the taste of gold
Fuck me in your dreams like you can't escape it
I can make a scene when I feel degraded
Bullet through my heart when I feel you break it
I feel you break it
So why are you lucid in the daylight?
You feel like a stranger inside your skin
You run like a creature in the black night
And you'll be alone in your bed 'til the bitter end
You keep talking with your hands
You can taste the poison with your swollen tongue
Bite your neck, I want it bad
Blood into a diamond with a single touch
Fuck me in your dreams like you can't escape it
I can make a scene when I feel degraded
Bullet through my heart when I feel you break it
But something keeps you coming back
So why are you lucid in the daylight?
You feel like a stranger inside your skin
You run like a creature in the black night
And you'll be alone in your bed 'til the bitter end
So why are you lonely in the twilight?
You live with a fever that makes you sick
You run like a creature in the black night
And you'll be alone in your bed 'til the bitter end
(I can find you when the sun sets
Where you're furthest from the light
I will follow you forever
Like a creature in the night)
I can turn a dream right into a living nightmare
Show me how to feel when you show me that you don't care
You don't care
You run, you run, you run like a creature in the black night!
So why are you lucid in the daylight?
You feel like a stranger inside your skin
You run like a creature in the black night
And you'll be alone in your bed 'til the bitter end
So why are you lonely in the twilight?
You live with a fever that makes you sick
You run like a creature in the black night
And you'll be alone in your bed 'til the bitter end
Yeah, you'll be alone in your bed 'til the bitter end
Once I got a hold on you, I won't let go
On your knees, you'll understand
Nothing stays the same except the taste of gold
I can make a scene when I feel degraded
Bullet through my heart when I feel you break it
I feel you break it
You feel like a stranger inside your skin
You run like a creature in the black night
And you'll be alone in your bed 'til the bitter end
You can taste the poison with your swollen tongue
Bite your neck, I want it bad
Blood into a diamond with a single touch
I can make a scene when I feel degraded
Bullet through my heart when I feel you break it
But something keeps you coming back
You feel like a stranger inside your skin
You run like a creature in the black night
And you'll be alone in your bed 'til the bitter end
You live with a fever that makes you sick
You run like a creature in the black night
And you'll be alone in your bed 'til the bitter end
Where you're furthest from the light
I will follow you forever
Like a creature in the night)
Show me how to feel when you show me that you don't care
You don't care
You feel like a stranger inside your skin
You run like a creature in the black night
And you'll be alone in your bed 'til the bitter end
You live with a fever that makes you sick
You run like a creature in the black night
And you'll be alone in your bed 'til the bitter end
Yeah, you'll be alone in your bed 'til the bitter end

This track revolves around the struggle with one's own darker impulses and temptations, often described as a rush or an addiction that is difficult to ignore. It can also be interpreted as being about the allure of a toxic relationship, where someone repeatedly returns to a person who ultimately causes pain, symbolizing a self-destructive cycle. The title itself evokes the feeling of being overpowered by a "darker part of your conscience" that you can't resist.
