Song Summary & Meaning
"Creep" is an anthem of alienation, insecurity, and unrequited love. The narrator feels out of place and unworthy, fixating on someone they admire but believe they don’t deserve.
Iconic Lyrics:
“I’m a creep, I’m a weirdo / What the hell am I doing here? I don’t belong here…”
Its raw vulnerability struck a chord with listeners, especially in the 1990s, when themes of self-loathing and disillusionment dominated alternative rock.
