The Silent Era - Scorpio (Live at Brighton Electric Studios) Lyrics

Reality
Can be as loose as this facade, honey
Make no mistake
The beast you cloud and shade
Is crystal-clear to me

A bitter taste
Sour uncertainty slips from your tongue
A cheap deceit
Has me beneath your tail
A deadly pleasure I crave

There ain't no way
No hazard pay, no pill for my pain
You'll be the death of me
The threat is real
No cure can heal, the venom in my veins
You'll be the death of me

Let's ditch the blame
This raw behaviour's in your nature, I
I can't deny
I try to trust myself
But every time, I crudely succumb

To the lure you cast
A fickle hook, I hang on every draw
Infected, I
I strain for every breath
As poison sends me to my grave, yeah

There ain't no way
No hazard pay, no pill for my pain
You'll be the death of me
The threat is real
No cure can heal, the venom in my veins
You'll be the death of me

Oh, I pray my heart
My heart
Can brave your sting
Your sting

There ain't no way
No hazard pay, no pill for my pain
You'll be the death of me
The threat is real
No cure can heal, the venom in my veins
You'll be the death of me

There ain't no way
No hazard pay, no pill for my pain
You'll be the death of me
The threat is real
No cure can heal, the venom in my veins
You'll be the death of me
