Scarecrow Lyrics

Walking to the other side With the Devil trying to take my mind And my soul's just a silhouette On the ashes of a cigarette
Illusions never fake their lives Trick cards fool the eyes Carry zeros over till they add up Bury tears in the chapters you shut
Sometimes the jail can't chain the cell And the rain's too plain to tell All alone by a barren well Scarecrow's only scaring himself
I've been digging the ground Beneath the dust and the clouds I see miles and miles Of junkyard piles
I wanted hope from a grave I wanted strength from a spade What gives you comfort now Might be the end of your vein
Crows are pulling at my clothes The wind got my fingers froze Standin' all day, keepin' watch Over all the treasures we've lost
Sometimes the jail can't chain the cell And the rain's to plain to tell All alone by a barren well The scarecrow's only scaring himself
Scarecrow's only scaring himself Scarecrow's only scaring himself Scarecrow's only scaring himself
