Cold is the wind that will freeze you

Scarecrow is left crucified
Left freezing, bleeding, tired of wondering why
The wolves just couldn't understand
It's the preachers and the teachers
Government's close-minded creatures
Trying to teach us to hate
That which is different
Tied to the fence as they break you
And sadness will sear
Cold is the wind that will freeze you
And Sadness will sear
It's 12:53 AM, October 12th
When the scarecrow died
A victim of society's cruelty
It's 12:53 AM, October 12th
When the shepherd died
The candle's light will alight your departure
Tied to the fence as they break you
And sadness will sear
Cold is the wind that will freeze you
And Sadness will sear
Tied to the fence as they break you
And sadness will sear
Cold is the wind that will freeze you
And Sadness will sear
