My life, is everything
That feeds my thirst,
That causes sin.
My wants, are all I care
No shame and guilt, there's nothing there.
Look deep, into my face
I sell deceit, without a trace.
Fear not, what I can do
Unless you, want it done to you.
As I climb onto your back,
I will promise not to sting.
I will, tell you what you want to hear
And not mean anything.
Then I, treat you like a dog,
As I shoot my venom in
You pretend you didn't know,
That I am a scorpion.
My self, I'm centered in
There's nothing else,
There's never been.
And I dream, to be left alone
With the sadness, the madness of my own.
Look deep, into my soul
It's black as coal, like a bullet hole.
Fear not, get off your knees
There's no defense,
You'll do what I please.
As I climb onto your back,
I will promise not to sting.
I will, tell you what you want to hear
And not mean anything.
I will, treat you like a dog,
As I shoot my venom in
'Cuz you knew all along,
I am a scorpion.
My lies, to reach the shore
I aggrandize, and nothing more
My hopes, to steal away
All that you love, I'll soon betray.
Look deep, into my past
The pain I feel, is unsurpassed
I'm not, a lowly scorpion
I'm so much worse, I'm the fall of man.
