scarecrow hill - shadow of a giant lyrics
i’ve spent my life in the shadow of a giant
and every night i dream of living life outside it
im just on the ride, but this monster is the pilot
so im stuck inside, with my hate and hope divided
i saw a glimpse of heaven and ive been to h-ll
i came back with some scars and a story to tell
my whole life i felt like im stuck at the bottom of a
well
there’s freedom in my sight but im in the dark all by
myself
trapped in a prison, that keeps me in submission
and ceasing to exist is the only release from this
condition
this place isnt fictional i face it with conviction
everyday when i awake i am disgraced by this existence.
this is not a battle i was interested in having
when these walls went up around me man, surprised was
my
reaction
i felt like i was captured by a faction of -ss-ssins
who would try with drastic actions to subtract from my
comp-ssion.
pennies in my eyes, i’ll pay the ferryman’s toll
rather than surrender to this collector of souls
this machine is always running with a mind of it’s own
and i just cant help but wonder how my eulogy will go…
i’ve spent my life in the shadow of a giant
and every night i dream of living life outside it
im just on the ride, but this monster is the pilot
so im stuck inside, with my hate and hope divided
please listen up carefully now…
i never wanted to live in this place.
but it’s never been up to me, wow!
i’m just a one legged man in the race
and it feels like a mannequin house…
like everyone up in this b-tch is a fake…
they just hide in the shadows and shout,
no one has the spine to hate me to my face
all that i’ve ever wanted was out…
i don’t think i can keep living this way.
everyday put a gun in my mouth,
and i have to admit that i’m liking the taste
now it’s who, what, when, why, where, and how?
question everything in front of my eyes
trust me, h-ll’s not underground….
it’s in a place ive spent most of my life.
i’m darin you follow me down,
into the swallower of lives
it’s just like a merry go round…
except it costs your soul to ride
my screamin aint makin a sound
the mannequins here are all deaf dumb and blind
i just gotta get out of this town…
i cannot let this be where i die.
