Beck — Scarecrow El-P Remix

[Verse 1] I'm walking through the other side With the devil trying to take my mind And my soul's just a silhouette From the ashes of a cigarette [Verse 2] Illusions never fake their lies Trick cards fool the eye Carry zeros over 'til they add up Bury tears in the chapters you shut [Chorus] Sometimes the jail can't chain the cell And the rain's too plain to tell All alone but bearing well The scarecrow's only scaring himself [Post-Chorus] Ooh-ooh, ooh Ooh-ooh, ooh [Verse 3] I've been digging the ground In the dust and the clouds I see miles and miles And junkyard piles I wanted hope from a grave I wanted strength from a slave What gives you comfort now Might be the end of you then Crows are pulling at my clothes The wind got my fingers froze Standing all day keeping watch Over all the treasures we lost [Chorus] Sometimes the jail can't chain the cell And the rain's too plain to tell All alone but bearing well The scarecrow's only scaring himself [Post-Chorus] Ooh-ooh, ooh Ooh-ooh, ooh [Bridge & Instrumental Interlude] Ooh-ooh, ooh Ooh Ooh-ooh Ooh Ooh-ooh Ooh Ooh-ooh Ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh Ooh Ooh-ooh, ooh [Outro] The scarecrow's only scaring himself The scarecrow's only scaring himself The scarecrow's only scaring himself
