Heads are down
Tugging at your collar
A muted crowd trying to forget how to breathe
So that they don't make a sound
Can't you see you're losing,
Can't you see you're losing me?

Silence never seemed so loud
Violence never stood so proud
A minute lasts an hour and a day

Bleeding out
Counting to find the courage to turn around
Trying to remember to breathe
But the noise is all around
Can't you see the bruising,
Can't you see the bruising here?

Silence never seemed so loud
Violence never stood so proud
September lasts an hour and a day

Minutes we reflect
Every year and every next
Silence never stood so proud
The breeze blows from the west
With our heads down

Heads Down
