10,000 Maniacs - Scorpio Rising Lyrics

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 cynics tongue
Save the cool white stare
And take 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 the cool white stare
Take me to an honest face sometime

Amaze me now

Artful, well 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 it

For the sake of pity, save the pistol
Save the cynic's tongue
Save the cool white stare
And take me to an honest face sometime

Amaze me now

Amaze me now, now, now
