Shall I lash out
Or watch the heel pass over?
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
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?
It's so strange
To always be on guard
Awaiting catastrophe
At the turn of a card
I was once such a trusting fellow
Full of hope, 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
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?
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?
Beware the snake
With sharpened fang
Beware the snake
With sharpened
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?
