Scarecrow by Kavara Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Yin or Yang when the time is right
A masquerade of sun and moonlight
Driven by reciprocity
The ruined joke of our society
Your mind is set but you lack all brains
No trespassers on your terrain
Tip the scale, cost benefit
A shiny crown for old king shit

[Verse 2]
A stronghold with no defence
The answer that makes no sense
The nightmare that intervenes
Within a lucid dream

[Pre-Chorus]
Letting go of an altruistic approach
Bask in your glory
All hail the mighty ego
[Chorus]
We are the outlaws
With restricted, spineless posture
Barbed wire persona
Until we're weathered and lost

[Verse 3]
Our eyes are open but we just can't see
We shoot for stars that are out of reach
We spin the silk of our own cocoons
You do you, because I'm guilty too
Senses fail as a bystander
It's the price we pay to feel secure
Along the way we've lost our souls
I'm no stranger, but your shoulder's cold

[Chorus]
We are the outlaws
With restricted, spineless posture
Barbed wire persona
Until we're weathered and lost

[Bridge]
Evolution comes to a halt
Pay your dues, it's all your fault
Climbing vines of irony
An absent doubt but we still have greed
In this crowd you stand alone
Reap what you sow, protect your own
Stab the back of your only friend
A grin stitched-up with means to an end
[Pre-Chorus]
Letting go of an altruistic approach
Bask in your glory
All hail the mighty ego

[Chorus]
We are the outlaws
With restricted, spineless posture
Barbed wire persona
Until we're weathered and lost
We are the outlaws
With restricted, spineless posture
Barbed wire persona
Until we're weathered and lost
