Scarecrow - The Veils

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

That set his body 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

To soon

I’m glad to have him with me now

Death coat pecked bare

Red collar bled white

No black heart there

No bark and no bite

Just this Scarecrow

Caught in my mind

Scarecrow

Not made for these time
