"Scarecrow" lyrics - SKILLET

SKILLET
"Scarecrow"
(John L. Cooper / Ken Steorts)

Hanging on a post
In my dirty clothes
Try to concentrate on You
But I keep forgetting

[Pre-Chorus:]
Safe enough to not let go
Scared enough to not release
Open up to drink the wind
You tear me up when you come in

[Chorus:]
Take me down, shake me out
Give me a brain, that I might know You better
Take me down, shake me out
Give me a brain, that I might know You better

Hanging in the sun
Waiting for the rain
Saw a field catch on fire
I caught myself just watching

[Pre-Chorus:]
Safe enough to not let go
Scared enough to not release
Open up to drink the wind
You tear me up when you come in

[Chorus:]
Take me down, shake me out
Give me a heart, that I might love You better
Take me down, shake me out
Give me a heart, that I might love You better

Hanging on a post
Just next to Yours
I want to curse and spit
I weep aloud at Your mercy

[Chorus:]
Take me down, shake me out
Give me a life, that I might serve You better
Take me down, shake me out
Give me a life, that I might serve You better
Take me down, shake me out
Give me a life, that I might serve You better
Take me down, shake me out
Give me a life, that I might serve You better
Take me down, shake me out
Give me a life, that I might serve You better
Take me down, shake me out
Give me a life, that I might serve You better
