Scorpion Breath - Mastodon

The elusive mystery

Determined by the stars

The stigma is valid, truth and fear

The fear is real

It will set us free

It took my Pa

I stand in deliverance

Waiting for destruction

In a wake of blood

The awakening moment arrives

Returning you at will

The midnight hour prepares for truth

The truth is real

The truth is real

It’s so far beyond my reach

The crimson mask is rising black

The last setting sun

Will be seen in my dusted mind

Constantly burying our loves

In the trench of this

Mysterious despair

It leaves us empty

Clawing in

Clawing in

The elusive mystery

Determined by the stars

The stigma is valid truth and fear

The fear is real

Free us from this feeder

Lead me in deeper

To fulfil this seed that I grew

Into at my birth
