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.
Then I treat you like a dog
as I shoot my venom in
You pretend you didn't know that I am a scorpion.
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
'Cause 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, you I'll soon betray
Look deep into my past
The pain I deal is unsurpassed
I'm not a lowly scorpion
I'm so much worse;
I'm the fall of man
