Seldom seen a scarecrow's dream
|
I hang in the hopes of replacement
|
Castles tall, I built them all
|
But I dream that I'm trapped in the basement
|
And if you ever hear me calling out
|
And if you've been by paupers crowned
|
Between the wolds of men and make-believe I can be found
|
Plans I've made
|
A masquerade fading in fear of the coming day
|
Heroes' tales like nightingales
|
Wrestle the wind as they run away
|
And if you ever hear them calling out
|
And if you've been by paupers crowned
|
Between the worlds of men and make-believe I can be found
|
Garden gate
|
An empty plate waiting for someone to come and fill
|
Scarecrow's dreams like frozen streams
|
Thirst for the thaw but they're running still
|
And if you ever hear them calling out
|
And if you've been by paupers crowned
|
Between the wolds of men and make-believe I can be found
|
