Soundtracks - Scarecrow - Beck 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 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 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 ony scaring himself Oooh ooh ooh Oooh ooh ooh Scarecrow's only scaring himself Scarecrow's only scaring himself Scarecrow's only scaring himself
