And Sadness Will Sear

Shepherd is chased by the wolves Those who live by intolerance and hate For what they couldnt understand Blinded and vicious are the beasts Needing and ripping at a beautiful human He 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 But just couldn't understand Is the preachers and the teachers You are man's close-minded creatures Trying to teach us to hate That which isn't for us 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
