Lyrics

[Intro] Shall I lash out Or watch the heel pass over? [Verse 1] I sit down on the park Enjoying the sunshine Beauty of this world All bright and divine Yet my soul can't relax No matter how I try I'm caught between peace Biding my time And this urgent need to strike [Chorus] Once bitten, twice shy Scales sure to see the lies Lessons learned, I paid the price Don't be immune to great advice Shall I lash out (Once bitten) Or watch the heel pass over? Shall I lash out (Twice shy) Or watch the heel pass over me? [Verse 2] It's so strange To always be on guard Awaiting catastrophе At the turn of a card I was once such a trusting fellow Full of hopе, faithful, mellow Time is ruining my vision (Time is ruining my vision) Hurt is hardening my hide (Hardening my hide) Pain forced my skin to glisten Tribulation sharpened my mind [Chorus] Once bitten, twice shy Scales sure to see the lies Lessons learned, I paid the price Don't be immune to great advice Shall I lash out (Once bitten) Or watch the heel pass over? Shall I lash out (Twice shy) Or watch the heel pass over me? [Refrain] Shall I lash out Or watch the heel pass over? Shall I lash out Or watch the heel pass over? Shall I lash out Or watch the heel pass over? Shall I lash out Or watch the heel pass over? [Bridge] Beware the snake With sharpened fang Beware the snake With sharpened [Chorus] Once bitten, twice shy Scales sure to see the lies I won't be burned, no, not this time I won't fall prey to my device Shall I lash out (Once bitten) Or watch the heel pass over? Shall I lash out (Twice shy) Or watch the heel pass over me?
