The Scorpion

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, oh-ohhh! [Solo - Mustaine] 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, oh 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, oh-oh! [Solo - Mustaine] 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, ohhh! [Solo - Mustaine] 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, yeah! 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
