[Verse 1] I used to think that staying meant You’d see how much of me I spent I’d bite my tongue to keep the peace And call it love when I felt weak I learned to read between the lines The quiet shifts, the changing signs I notice more than I let on But I don’t always make it known [Pre-Chorus] Maybe I feel more than I should Maybe I misunderstood But I won’t close myself away Just because some hearts don’t stay [Chorus] I’m a Scorpio I love with everything I’ve got But I won’t beg somebody to stay Or give away the best of who I am I’m a Scorpio There’s more to me than what I show I’m not made of stone I just learned to stand on my own [Verse 2] I’ve had my share of almosts Of almost-rights and almost-home Of conversations left unfinished And people I once knew so well I don’t need the last word now I’ve said enough, I’ve figured out Being strong is not pretending I’m untouched when something’s ending [Pre-Chorus] Maybe I feel more than I should Maybe I misunderstood But I won’t close myself away Just because some hearts don’t stay [Chorus] I’m a Scorpio I love with everything I’ve got But I won’t beg somebody to stay Or give away the best of who I am I’m a Scorpio There’s more to me than what I show I’m not made of stone I just learned to stand on my own [Bridge] There’s still a boy inside of me Who wants to trust so easily He hasn’t left, he’s just grown tired Of always being the one who tries And if you meet him, let him be He doesn’t owe you everything He’s still got love, he’s still got hope He just knows now what to hold close [Final Chorus] I’m a Scorpio I love with everything I’ve got I won’t be less of who I am Just to convince somebody to stay I’m a Scorpio And now there’s one thing that I know I’m not made of stone I just learned to stand on my own [Outro] I still feel everything I just don’t show it all I’m a Scorpio That’s all.
