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
