Not exactly on a par with some of the lyrics here in terms of creepiness/scariness but here's the lyrics to a song I wrote which I think does have a creepy edge :-)
Out Of Focus
Watching, wanting to know you more,
The brown leaves curl around me,
So long I've wanted to open the door,
And let your world surround me
Masked by insignificance,
The deadbeats tread the ground,
You could mistake me for one of them,
But my heart beats a different sound
Look hard at your memories, like you do photographs,
That's where you'll find me,
At the side, out of focus, a forgotten face,
That never forgets you
Head hung low with blackened eyes,
It's no surprise I'm avoided,
Hardened skin but broken inside,
But no one ever looks that closely
The divide that stays between us,
I pray to someday be bridged,
And you'll meet me halfway,
Fulfilling my dreams of affinity
Look hard at your memories, like you do photographs,
That's where you'll find me,
At the side, out of focus, a forgotten face,
That never forgets you
A ghost I've become, detached and unloved,
But here my story shouldn't end,
If I could make you see me for what I am,
Under your wing I'd be taken
