Hippo Campus - Scorpio

Catch me leaving in the dead of night
Run, run like an animal holding back the tears so
I get by like a week at a time
But it seems so pitiful, seems like I'm awfully
Scared of the things that I am sometimes
Hide away, you can stay if you feel like you want to
Like the fool with the deck stacked up
Maybe I should say some things that I ought to, now

Oh no
No, oh no

Scorpio, we might be the same
You're so good at laughing off things that affect you
Wish I could tap your confidence
Think it's kinda hot how you downplay all
That shit that you got when you gave me your heart
Instead of looking outside, you were looking inside
Can't put away what you left in my bed
While I was looking upwards, you were looking ahead

Late nights with the tv on, Sandman been away too long
Stay up 'til the break of dawn, necessary, necessary evil
With the tv on, Sandman been away too long
Stay up 'til the break of dawn, necessary, necessary evil

Oh no
No, oh no

Stirring the pot with our fate in my hands
It feels so incredible
Wait for the time when it comes back around
It cures like an antidote
That you got when I messed with your heart
Instead of looking outside, you were looking inside
Can't put away what you left in my head
While I was looking upwards, you were looking back then

Late nights with the tv on, Sandman been away too long
Stay up 'til the break of dawn, necessary, necessary evil
With the tv on, Sandman been away too long
Stay up 'til the break of dawn, necessary, necessary evil

Necessary, necessary evil
'Til the break, 'til the break of
'Til the break, 'til the break of dawn
'Til the break, 'til the break of
'Til the break, 'til the break of dawn
'Til the break, 'til the break of
'Til the break, 'til the break of dawn
'Til the break, 'til the break of
'Til the break, 'til the break of dawn
