Melissa Etheridge
Scarecrow

Showers of your crimson blood
Seep into a nation calling up a flood
Of narrow minds who legislate
Thinly veiled intolerance
Bigotry and hate

But they tortured and burned you
They beat you and they tied you
They left you cold and breathing
For love they crucified you

I can't forget hard as I try
This silhouette against the sky

Scarecrow crying
Waiting to die wondering why
Scarecrow trying
Angels will hold carry your soul away

This was our brother
This was our son
This shepherd young and mild
This unassuming one
We all gasp this can't happen here
We're all much too civilized
Where can these monsters hide

But they are knocking on our front door
They're rocking in our cradles
They're preaching in our churches
And eating at our tables

I search my soul
My heart and in my mind
To try and find forgiveness
This is someone child
With pain unreconciled
Filled up with father's hate
Mother's neglect
I can forgive But I will not forget

Scarecrow crying
Waiting to die wondering why
Scarecrow trying
Rising above all in the name of love



Mirror lyrics:


Rising above all in the name of love
Scarecrow trying
Waiting to die wondering why
Scarecrow crying

I can forgive But I will not forget
Mother's neglect
Filled up with father's hate
With pain unreconciled
This is someone child
To try and find forgiveness
My heart and in my mind
I search my soul

And eating at our tables
They're preaching in our churches
They're rocking in our cradles
But they are knocking on our front door

Where can these monsters hide
We're all much too civilized
We all gasp this can't happen here
This unassuming one
This shepherd young and mild
This was our son
This was our brother

Angels will hold carry your soul away
Scarecrow trying
Waiting to die wondering why
Scarecrow crying

This silhouette against the sky
I can't forget hard as I try

For love they crucified you
They left you cold and breathing
They beat you and they tied you
But they tortured and burned you

Bigotry and hate
Thinly veiled intolerance
Of narrow minds who legislate
Seep into a nation calling up a flood
Showers of your crimson blood
