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
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
Oooh ooh ooh
Oooh ooh ooh

Scarecrow´s only scaring himself
Scarecrow´s only scaring himself
