Scorpio Rising

When you kiss the base o'my spine Make my body into your shrine You give me this feeling deep inside One that I can no longer disguise While other snakes just shed their skins Fucked holes pointing out my sins Even though I realize that history's not on my side Even though I realize the pioneer skin still curls up in my eyes If I don't go crazy, I'll lose my mind I saw a life before me but now I'm blind I want to go to heaven, never been there before I want to go to heaven, so you give me some more Flying high upon the gallows Too messed up to step out of the shadows A drugged up heart that knows no sorrow Rescued from this deep dark hole Stick on these boots and sharpen the nails Time is nigh for you leather girls Maybe we should end this race Vanish while we cannot leave no trace If I don't go crazy, I'll lose my mind I saw a life before me, but now I'm blind See one-arm film stars on alien beaches Potted gold and tattooed faces Harrison murals on the corner, Tupperware boxes full of hops Diazepam dreams there catching streams Paper dinosaurs flash blue and green Still I've got a flash-bulb head Still I've got a flash-bulb head If I don't go crazy, I'll lose my mind I saw a life before me but now I'm blind I want to go to heaven, never been there before I want to go to heaven, so you give me some more Come along nice, come along dead Scorpio rising, and paint it red A psychic equalizer in your head Come along nice, come along dead Scorpio rising, and paint it red A psychic equalizer in your head.. --- Scorpio Rising - Death in Vegas
