about

I had the name ‘Scarecrow Bones’ in my notebook and wanted to try writing a song from the title only. This is the result.

lyrics

Scarecrow Bones

Revel in the scorching rays of an incandescent sun
Shafts of dappled diamond light ignite your fragile skin
Stand quietly alone
Warm your scarecrow bones

Don’t your heart beat madly in your chest rattling its rusted cage?
A dusty, loveless, hollow place bound by senseless rage
You’ve been hoarding your despair
Lay bare those scarecrow bones

No portraits on the mantle
No mementos in the drawer
Now everyone’s to blame
Since you lost Reggie to the war

Black crows’ll steal your memories with a whisper of wings
Smile through parched and blistered lips
You’ll be scattered on the wind
No one left to mourn
Your scarecrow bones

Scarecrow bones
