My life is everything
That feeds my thirsts, that causes sin
My wants are all I care
No shame and guilt
There’s nothing there
Look deep into my veins
I sell deceit, without a trace

Fear not what I can do
Unless you want it done to you

Oh oh

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

Myself I'm centered in
There's nothing else
There’s never been
Is my dream
To be left alone
With the sadness, the madness of my own

Look deep into my soul
Its black as its 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, ya!

My lies to reach the shore
I aggrandize and nothing more
My hopes, to steal away,
All that you love, you'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
