Pop, baru country, dan kembali ke pop lagi. Demikian grafik kemenangan talent di The X Factor USA. Untuk season ketiga yang naasnya menjadi season terakhir bagi penyelenggaraan talent show tersebut di Amerika Serikat, Alex Kinsey dan Sierra Deaton keluar sebagai juara. Duo Alex & Sierra yang ternyata kekasih di kehidupan nyata ini pun bergegas untuk merampungkan album perdana mereka, dengan terlebih dahulu mengeluarkan single 'Scarecrow' sebagai andalannya.
Kualitas unik dan orisinil kerap menjadi pujian bagi Alex & Sierra saat kompetisi. Terbukti kembali dalam kesempatan mereka menjual produk sendiri, keotentikan yang mereka miliki adalah signature yang tetap mereka tempelkan, termasuk di 'Scarecrow'. Ini sebenarnya adalah jawaban atas pertanyaan susulan mengenai kelanjutan karir pasca kompetisi. Judging from what I hear, they're not created to be authentic, but they live by it.
Lagu ini sebenarnya tak hadir dalam dua point of view. Barisan lirik menunjukkan perwakilan perasaan searah. Subyek merasa masih ingin bertahan, namun obyek justru berlaku sebaliknya. Sehingga agak rancu bagi keduanya membualkan lirik secara timbal balik satu sama lain. Mereka seharusnya hadir dengan skenario yang lebih nyata seperti yang selalu Lady Antebellum bawakan. Atau jika tidak, salah satu di antara mereka tampil dan yang lain mundur demi penyerapan kisah yang lebih masuk akal. Otherwise, musik mereka terdengar bagus dan layak.

LYRIC
[Alex:]
I'm standin' still without you
In the emptiest of fields
I wish that I could say what's on my mind
[Sierra:]
The straw that fills your heart
So you never have to feel
You say that you just need a little time
[Alex:]
Days like these I bury my
My each and every word
And hide them underneath these lonely trees
[Sierra:]
The harvest moon is wicked
I know that you've been hurt
I swear I'm here for good I'll never leave
[Alex:]
This is where it starts tonight
[Sierra:]
If you open up your heart tonight
[Both:]
You're staring out the window
And I'm out here in the street
You stand there like a scarecrow
And I'm begging you to speak
You used to be my solid ground
Now I'm drowning in the sea
And I just want to believe in you and me
I just want to believe in you and me
(Heeya! Heey! Heeya! Heey)
[Sierra:]
You used to be so full of life
Not just an empty shell
You're out there all alone I wonder why
[Alex:]
The pieces keep on falling out
And I pick them up myself
But I'd let you steal the buttons from my eyes
[Alex:]
Oh, this is where it starts tonight
[Sierra:]
If you open up your heart tonight
[Both:]
You're staring out the window
And I'm out here in the street
You stand there like a scarecrow
And I'm begging you to speak
You used to be my solid ground
Now I'm drowning in the sea
And I just want to believe in you and me
Yeah, I just want to believe in you and me
(Heeya! Heey! Heeya! Heey)
(Heeya! Heey! Heeya! Heey)
[Sierra:]
You said you'd open up for me
[Alex:]
Well nothing's what it seems to be
[Sierra:]
How can I make you feel again
[Alex:]
Only you can make me real again
[Both:]
You're staring out the window
And I'm out here in the street
You stand there like a scarecrow
And I'm begging you to speak
You used to be my solid ground
Now I'm drowning in the sea
I just want to believe in you and me
I just want to believe in you and me
[Both:]
You're staring out the window
I'm out here in the street
You stand there like a scarecrow
I'm begging you to speak
You used to be my solid ground
Now I'm drowning in the sea
And I just want to believe in you and me
Yeah, I just want to believe in you and me
(Heeya! Heey! Heeya! Heey)
[Both:]
You're staring out the window
I'm out here in the street
You stand there like a scarecrow
And I just want to believe in you and me
