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 zeroes over 'til 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
junkyard Of 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

Overall 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

Oooh ooh ooh

Scarecrow's only scaring himself
Scarecrow's only scaring himself

Scarecrow's only scaring himself

END
