Written initially by Greg on guitar, but Nathan made a piano arrangement of it, and went on to front all latter version of the song. A favourite of the band to play throughout 2011 and 2012.

Nicole Hunt wrote the lyrics.

It got it's name because it sounds like someone creeping around a house late at night.

Lyrics

14th-15th version:

I feel it's time to go to sleep
My bed's all made, my lights are dim 
I feel it's time to close my eyes
I need my pills to soothe my head

Just stay away
From me
Unless you change your ways

I think it's past my bedtime
You make me feel like a fool
My head spins round with all your lies
Don't you think you should leave my life?

Although I could
Do with some
Loving before you go
