Creagh

Creagh is one of many Irish surnames rooted in Gaelic language native to Ireland. The Creagh family was first found in County Clare, where they held a family seat from ancient times. The original Gaelic form of the name Creagh is Craobhach, derived from the word "croabh" meaning "branch."

The name is also used for many townlands, parishes and other small areas throughout Ireland, such as Creagh, near Ballinasloe, in Co. Roscommon ; The Creagh in Co. Londonderry just across the River Bann from Toome, Co. Antrim; Creagh near Skibbereen in Co. Cork; Creagh Beg and Creagh More near Clonakilty, also in Co. Cork; and Creagh (Kilcommock parish), Co.Longford.

Many spelling variations of the surname Creagh can be found in the archives. One of the reasons for these variations is the ancient scribes and church officials recorded names as they were pronounced, often resulting in a single person being recorded under several different spellings. The different spellings that were found include Creagh, Crear, Creag, Creavagh, Cray and others.

    Sellout

    by: George

    I knew you
    Before you entered through the deadly door
    It's eaten away at you
    It's given you the edge
    You're dreaming of returning
    But you don't think you can
    (You don't think you can)
    They don't sell the product to you
    They sell you to the product
    They don't give a fuck about you
    They just want their deadly dosh
    I wish you could see through this
    I wish you could believe
    That you can really do this
    I know you can
    Cuz i knew you
    Before you entered through the deadly door
    It's eaten away at you
    It's given you the edge
    You're dreaming of returning
    But you don't think you can
    You don't think you can
    They don't want to know about
    Your aspirations
    They don't care about where they are
    Sending you to
    They dont't mind they don't mind
    To blacken your stream
    They are pulling you along
    So when will you see
    That i knew you
    Before you entered through the deadly door
    It's eaten away at you
    It's given you the edge
    You're dreaming of returning
    Cuz i knew you
    Before you entered through the deadly door
    It's eaten away at you
    It's given you the edge
    You're dreaming of returning
    (dreaming of returning
    you are dreaming of returning to that
    to that same world
