Scorpio rising

Time is just a slap on the wrist
To the bastard child of genesis
Who takes everything you resist
With a velvet glove or an iron fist

Throw back the pages and you're
Bound to find what you're looking for
Roll with the changes and you're sure to find
All the things you've never dreamed of

Scorpio is rising
And eating your decay
Breakin thru disguises
And then she runs away

Can't leave a step up to chance
When you rendezvous where the devils dance
And every breath feels like it's your last
Cuz you're down and out
Beaten, bound and gagged
Break my neck and shut my eyes
'Cause I'm not willing to compromise
All or nothing, pay the price
The price for living in paradise
