Jeff And Maya Bohnhoff - Scarecrow lyrics

I stand here grinning Under an orange October sky A straw man rooted to the earth. The sun is going down Red light on fields of brown The autumn fires burn. Beneath these feet of clay I feel the rumbling As the Armageddon boys smile their secret little smiles. No hint of sunlight But they feel the fire As clouds of birds desert the burning fields. Here at the crossroads I hear whispers on the wind. Smoke to smoke Ashes to ashes Vanity to dust. I pray for rain The flood is coming I feel it in my bones To set me free, dissolve this bondage Wash me to my home. Seed the cloudburst With smoke and ash and dust. Redeem this trial by fire. Wash me to my home. Seed the cloudburst. Wash me to my home.
