I wash my hands in the blood filled stream

I wipe the dust from the crumbled spire

We've got our souls in tact but there's no shade under the trees

Although we run, where we get tired

And so, we're moving on

But the road is long

Don't get your hopes up

You better, keep your head down son

Ain't no time to cry

You better say goodbye

Don't get your hopes up

You better, keep your head down son

Keep your head down son

We run towards the land of dreams

To run away from smoke and fire

But there's no welcome mat and there's no cross that's evergreen

Is there nowhere to retire?

And so, we're moving on

But the road is long

Don't get your hopes up

You better, keep your head down son

Ain't no time to cry

You better say goodbye

Don't get your hopes up

You better, keep your head down son

Keep your head down son

Keep your head down son

Keep your head down son

Keep your head down son

Keep your head down son

We are all your family

And we are all your sons and daughters

That's your baby in the sea

That you have lead on to this slaughter

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh

Keep your head down son

Keep your head down son

Higher than a bird, live to live another day

Keep your head down son

Live to live another day, oh yeah

Keep your head down son

And so, we're moving on

But the road is long

Don't get your hopes up

You better, keep your head down son

Ain't no time to cry

You better say goodbye

Don't get your hopes up

You better, keep your head down son

Keep your head down son
