Scorpio
Eternity X Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Let me paint a picture for you
The silence is all you can hear
And as you walk into this lifetime
You tend to recognize your fears

And ss your faith grows to self pity
And as your hands they sweat and shake
For the first time that you need me
You ask forgiveness for mistakes

Don't you know that you have to run away inside
I'm the one that you ripped apart
You ask me for forgive your burning soul again
Now you will feel the sting of the Scorpion

Underneath I'm tides of burning passion
Cool and calm is always what you see
I will conquer everything I dream of
How dare you think of haunting me

Yes I'm the one you look to in times of need
I'm the one who will turn your pain into laughter
I never forget kindness anytime at all
I'll remember it forever after

Don't ever think that I'm not hearing you
Your changing, forgetting your native son
If you choose to forget my warning
Then you will feel the sting of the scorpion
Of the Scorpion




Of the Scorpion
Of the Scorpion

Line by Line Meaning

Let me paint a picture for you
Let me describe something vividly for you


The silence is all you can hear
Complete quiet surrounds you


And as you walk into this lifetime
As you begin your journey


You tend to recognize your fears
You start to acknowledge what you are afraid of


And as your faith grows to self pity
Your belief in yourself turns to self-doubt


And as your hands they sweat and shake
Your palms become damp and your body trembles


For the first time that you need me
When you require my help for the first time


You ask forgiveness for mistakes
You apologize for any errors you made


Don't you know that you have to run away inside
You must escape mentally


I'm the one that you ripped apart
I'm the one you hurt


You ask me for forgive your burning soul again
You request forgiveness for your fiery spirit once more


Now you will feel the sting of the Scorpion
You will experience the consequences of your actions


Underneath I'm tides of burning passion
I have an underlying fervor


Cool and calm is always what you see
I appear collected and serene


I will conquer everything I dream of
I will achieve everything I strive for


How dare you think of haunting me
You have no right to try to trouble me


Yes I'm the one you look to in times of need
You rely on me during difficult times


I'm the one who will turn your pain into laughter
I can make you feel better in the face of suffering


I never forget kindness anytime at all
I always remember acts of benevolence


I'll remember it forever after
I will recall it eternally


Don't ever think that I'm not hearing you
Don't assume I'm not listening to you


Your changing, forgetting your native son
You're transforming and disregard where you came from


If you choose to forget my warning
If you decide not to heed my advice


Then you will feel the sting of the scorpion
You will suffer the consequences
