    Story Behind the Song
    despite our being actively involved in helping to care for dozens of people dying from AIDS, most of our friends were so deep in denial that there was no way to make them face the fact that it could just as well be them, and that they were lucky - nothing more - to escape with their lives. writing this song helped us to deal with the anger we felt at their apathy.

    Lyrics
    Head in the Sand

    Do you think if you close your eyes it will all go away
    You crawl back to bed and you cover your head
    It seems you have nothing to say

    I want to know who chose the lies that you live with each day
    It's time for the piper to pay

    Chorus:

    And there is just one thing I can't understand
    As you sit there so sure in your youth
    How long can you live with your head in the sand
    Without someone breathing the truth

    You know what I'm about but still tune me out with disgust
    The safety you find in your smug, smalltown mind
    Is about to be blown into dust

    No time to prance and pout, this dance is of sadness, not lust
    Be careful of those whom you trust

    Chorus

    Do you think if you close you eyes.....
    It will all go away
