lyrics

THE MOON & THE SCARECROW
I got to hear her cry
I got to hear my angel calling
Such a long goodbye
(Hope the sound to break me)
It all comes down
When you're lost in the middle in a bad way
And broken like an old vow

But don't cry for me, baby
We’re all out here alone
Who even know where
Our souls are born
Or where they may be going
From on high to below
With the moon and the scarecrow
But don’t let it get you down
With the Moon & the Scarecrow
Don’t let it get you down

Got to hear her cry
Got to hear my angel calling
And give a long sigh
(the sound may shake me)

They put the old man down
And they cried to the lord with a fury
Only flesh & bone will allow


But don't cry for me, baby
We’re all out here alone
Who even know where
Our souls are born
Or where they may be going
From on high to below
With the moon and the scarecrow
But don’t let it get you down
With the Moon & the Scarecrow
Don’t let it get you down
With the Moon & the Scarecrow
And if truth ever be told
Will we go mad?
With the Moon & the Scarecrow
The Moon & the Scarecrow
In the Farmer’s Almanac
I saw the signs

I split my palm
Against his whispering cheek
Down in a dark cove
I fasted with the scarecrows
And the whole town
Ran with the killers and cutters
And got down
Double did my time in a cold hole
Right where the law man caught me
In the dark glow
Then I hear my song
And I want more
If you keep on coming
You gonna get shown
Get him get him,
Before I forget them
And ditch them
Disempowered and pulling the trigger
A riddle
I’m a skinny chicken
My mind my legs my whole
Head’s on fire
Along the way
Skull jammed it’s doomed and damned
you a real man?
Like a child that's born & raised & hazed
And kicked around by maggots
And now I'm crazy
Do I live or die
Along the way
With the Moon & the Scarecrow
