Shepherd is chased by the wolves
Wolves who live by intolerance and hate
For what they couldnt understand

Blinded and vicious are the beasts
Needing and ripping at a beautiful human
Who did nothing more than be himself


Tied to the fences they break you
And sadness will sear

Cold is the wind that will freeze you
And Sadness will sear


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 fences 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 fences they break you
And sadness will sear
Cold is the wind that will freeze you

And Sadness will sear

Tied to the fences they break you

And sadness will sear
Cold is the wind that will freeze you
And Sadness will sear
