lyrics
Reach out your hand now, go on take mine. Enter the water naked and blind. Leaving our armor here on sand. It's not in our nature,
but what the hell, let's take a chance.
Now that we're out here with no land in sight, starting to doubt if I'll last through the night. Thought you were treading deep water with me,
in fact you've been standing on a solid rock beneath you…
Goddamn scorpion man, now you've got me drinking. Goddamn scorpion man, I try but I can't stop thinking of
You let go of my hand so I wouldn't get your heart or your head wet.
I know there's nothing as scary as to trust in another who's so much like you. All of their demons may well be your own, ain't no lies to hide in when they already know
You goddamn scorpion man, now you've got me drinking, goddamn scorpion man, I try but can't stop thinking of
You let go of my hand so you wouldn't get your own heart or your head wet
But when you look back for me here in these waters black, you know exactly what'll be reflecting back
And in time that tide'll rise and lift your feet, and with nowhere left to stand you''' be stranded at sea
Goddamn scorpion man, got me drinking you, scorpion man I try but I just keep sinking into This wasn't my plan, but that's what i get for swimming with
a scorpion man, tell me, have you been drinking? well see, scorpion man i know you can't stop thinking of me
well it's stinging you and that's what you get, for getting this scorpion wet...
