The Veils - Scarecrow

Hung by the old field
the night in his eyes and the road by his side
He's trying to show me
it was a lightning bolt set his belly on fire

Scarecrow
Caught in my mind
Scarecrow
Not made for these times

Clear as a diamond
the light reads plain in the back of his eyes
We'd never know
He still dreams of a bird of a terrifying size But this scarecrow
caught in my mind
Scarecrow
Not made for these times

Cruel moon trying to weigh him down
too soon
Glad to have him with me now

Death-coat pecked bare
red collar bled-white
No bad heart there
no bark and no bite

Just this scarecrow
Caught in my mind
Scarecrow
Not made for these times
