Текст (слова) песни: 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
