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 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 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
