Head Down

'Keep your head down
Head down, step forward'
Wind pushes me back
Head down, foot forward

Foot finding grip in blowing sand
Wind laughing in my ear
Alone again
Head down, foot forward

"Fool, worthless"
'Head down, step forward'
No one can make me something I'm not
Head down, foot forward

'Think about the sunset
What you'll see if you keep moving'
Head down, push the wind back
Foot forward, find purchase against the sand.

So you don't want to join the adventure?
So you don't believe what I say,
So you think I'm not worth it,
So you think I'm a fool.

Guess what
I AM worth it
I am NOT a fool
I meant every word I ever said.

I keep my promises
I mean what I say
I don't wimp out halfway through the race
I will see my sunset someday

'Head down
So you can't see whose left you
Foot forward
So you don't stay in the disconsolate darkness'

'Head down
Step forward',
Head down
Foot forward...
