|
The boots you wear are heavy |
|
Rest now, |
|
I'll wear them for a while |
|
And as you lie there sleeping |
|
I'll walk down and retrace every mile |
|
All the lines around your eyes |
|
Show the battles deep inside you |
|
They are no match for me |
|
They are no match for me |
|
They are no match for me |
|
And what I wouldn't do |
|
To wear your heavy boots |
|
To wear your heavy boots |
|
To wear your heavy boots |
|
La da da da dum |
|
The sea is wide and angry |
|
It's merciless and waits for you to drown |
|
Your arms are tired from swimming |
|
The violence is written on your brow |
|
I will take away the hurtful words |
|
And swallow them with courage |
|
They are no match for me |
|
They are no match for me |
|
They are no match for me |
|
And what I wouldn't do |
|
To wear your heavy boots |
|
To wear your heavy boots |
|
To wear your heavy boots |
|
La da da da dum |
|
The warriors are waiting |
|
For you outside on the street |
|
And though you're only waking |
|
Rush now, you'll never miss a beat |
|
All the hungry virgin eyes |
|
With the scorpions in their smiles |
|
When their greedy fingers rise |
|
They are no match for me |
|
They are no match for me |
|
They are no match for me |
