lyrics

Autumn

I’m a scarecrow in the moonlight
And I scare those who dare
Trod my fields where cornsilk rustles underfoot
Moonbeams dance off pumpkin skulls and bails of hay
Til the day breaks out of the twisted oaks to find me still, alone

And autumn more than falls before me
I see myself from up above
Autumn find the leaves still falling
Dead as any former love

The years out here have kept me well
Unscathed by change, unmoved by pain that clings to Spanish moss like October rain
When crows approach they’re well aware I live to scare
though they dare light there, where spite, not interest, shows they care

Leave my shoulder
Quell your jeer
You were never welcome here
Your presence mocks me
Am I that tame?
Fear my love by any name
