"Scarecrow" lyrics

Standing like a scarecrow

I come back to life when dark stands still
And when nobody's around
I'm like a dummy
Just a poor man's design
It's hard to spot me in a crowd

I don't look alive in an empty field
When there is no one around
I know it's funny how I look in disguise
But I've been frozen all my life

Dark celebration as I realize

Aren't we all scarecrows praising the sun?
Here we stand together
Realize we won't bend or break
Until the day is over
Upon our fields
Aren't we all scarecrows?
We project eternal shadows

We're standing through rain and shine

I'm half alive but I am mostly dead
Under the midnight sky
A still life frame inside the gallery of time
No one can figure me out

'Cause I'm a freak of nature
I don't want to belong
You might think that I'm a failure
But I'll prove you wrong

Aren't we all scarecrows praising the sun?
Here we stand together
Realize we won't bend or break
Until the day is over
Upon our fields
Aren't we all scarecrows?
We project eternal shadows

I am a freak of nature
And I don't want to belong
No failure

But sometimes I just feel a little lonely
Hollow eyes witness every passing day
No failure
Won't turn my face away from the sunlight
Through the thick and thin
I always had it my way
No, I don't mind about the odds
Bring on the judgmental storm all over me
No failure
Resilient against all elements
Let the crows dance and fly above my head

We project eternal shadows
Standing through rain and shine

Aren't we all scarecrows praising the sun?
Here we stand together
Realize we won't bend or break
Until the day is over
Upon our fields
Aren't we all scarecrows?
We project eternal shadows

I am a freak of nature
And I don't want to belong
No failure

Won't turn my face away from the sunlight
Through the thick and thin
I always had it my way

We are freaks of nature
And we don't want to belong
We're scarecrows

Resilient against all elements
Let the crows dance and fly above our heads
