The sign said head shots

And that was all

A picture of a boy

And a number you could call

Two eyes in the shade

A mouth so sad and small

Strange the way a shadow

Can fall across the wall And make the difference

In what you see

Ah He's just a poster, but

He's everywhere

A face under a street lamp

Ripped and hangin' in the air

Turn the corner

And he's still there

Watching all the people

Who are passing unaware Is there a judgment

On what he sees?

Ah On a day

As cold

And gray

As today The sign says head shots

It's all I see

A boy becomes a picture

Of guilt and sympathy

And so I think of you

In memory

Of the days we were together

And I knew that you loved me That was the difference

In what we see

That's history

Ah

Ah

Ah
