Scarecrow Lyrics

you saw me walking in the sun
to the place we all come from
with a loaded little gun
from the gas store on the corner
past the old dead vulture's bone,
shoe soles on the wishing stone,
is it death and death alone who lies beyond that border?
in the morning it's hot as hell
- in case you couldn't tell -
but all in all it's just as well
if we don't go down in the fire
the old man's got nothing to hide
with his arms out open wide,
but if nothing's hurting in his side,
he ain't nothing but a liar

je me suis dirigé vers la rue
la fois que j'ai vécu
sans abri dans ma voiture
en me demandant, "quel diable
est-ce que j'ai créé avec ma peur ?"
j'suis épouvantail et je veux mon cœur,
tu m'as dit, "quel petit bonheur
deviendrait épouvantable ?"
