Scorpio Rising - 10,000 Maniacs

Power, dizzy with it stumble

Detail, a chance for us to quarrel

Anger, my head is shaken violent

If I could calm or restrain you

For the sake of pity

Save the pistol

Save the cynic’s tongue

Save that cool white stare

And treat me to an honest face sometime

Amaze me now!

Trust is the greatest human error

Empty, used me as a vessel

Ruthless, you’re not known for subtlety

If I could calm or restrain you

For the sake of pity

Save the pistol

Save the cynic’s tongue

Save that cool white stare

And treat me to an honest face sometime

Amaze me now!

Artful, there’s quite a skill to torture

A half smile, was it all you could deliver?

Token, so hard to be pleasant

If you could calm or restrain you

For the sake of pity

Save the pistol

Save the cynic’s tongue

Save that cool white stare

And treat me to an honest face sometime

Amaze me now!

Amaze me now!

Now!

Now!
