10 Contributors The Scarecrow Lyrics [Tobias Sammet:]
I'm just a loser in the game of love
I'm just a stray boy in the shade
And how I wish to know what love is like
To find someone to contemplate
There's a voice and a million answers
To the questions I don't ask
A demon â I've got to contain
When I'm walking through the fen
Getting deep into the black
Whispers I can't restrain
Don't give in
[Chorus]
Rise to fame
Time will come
Make your claim
Time has come
For the crow to fly away
Whoa!
[Jørn Lande:]
So you're an angel meant to walk down here
And you believe it's all divine
And you don't play by all those temporal rules
You watch the world begin to die
You might also like Alright - when the lamb's been torn to pieces
I've been crashing from the sky
Fallen to care for the pray
They put a spoke right in your wheel
I'm the one to dare the weak
To push you all over the pain
You give in - oh
[Chorus]
Rise to fame
Time will come
Make your claim
Time has come
For the crow to fly away
[Instrumental break 3:53 - 7:32]
[Tobias Sammet:]
I close my eyes
And I see what's coming my way, oh yeah
He's got treasure in his eyes
That he's gonna turn to clay
[Jørn Lande:]
Hmm-oh, I'm a stranger
I'm a changer
And I'm danger, maybe
[Tobias Sammet:]
Fallen angel - waiting for the prey
The devil has come to take a maimed away
Penetration of the twisted mind
The evil is out for the weak and blind
I can feel it in your voice
Ever so sweet, no
Do I really have a choice? No, no, no!
[Jørn Lande:]
Oh, you burn your feet on unholy ground
You roam the barren wicked plains abound
In evil eyes and evil speak
Abound in all, you evil freaks
When you say it's all divine
And meant to be, yeah, whoa
What about your flesh and blood
And defiers like me?
Their evil eyes are looking down on you
And those who don't are losing sight of you
Face the rage to chase away
The specter of disgrace and shame
Withered roses dying on the ledge
A withered dreamer standing on the edge
You dream of love - wake up to pain
You're better off to join in my game
Then she'll better off to cry
Contrite tears
One day she'll wonder why
She let you disappear, oh dear
Rise to fame - Your time has come
Time will come - To take the sun
Make your claim - You're drawn to the sound
Time has come - You're leaving ground
Rise to fame - The flight of the crow
Time will come - Cross the line
Make your claim - Your time has come
Time has come - For the crow to fly away
Rise to fame - It's a flight to hell, can you hear the bell
Time will come - The devil has come
Make your claim - to take your soul away
Time has come - It's a flight to hell
Alright
I'm a stranger
I'm a changer
And I'm danger
Fallen angel
Waiting for the prey, ahh 1 Embed Cancel
