• if I could swim
    I'd swim out to you in the ocean,
    Swim out to where you were floating
    in the dark.
    And if was blessed
    I walk on the water you're breathing,
    To lend you some air for that heaving
    Sunken chest.
    'Cause they chose you
    As the model
    For their empty little dreams.
    With your new head
    And your legs spread
    Like a filthy magazine.
    And they hunt you
    And they gut you
    And you give in.

    And if I was brave
    I'd climb up to you on the mountain.
    They led you to drink from their fountain
    Spouting lies.
    And I'd slay
    The horrible beast they commissioned
    To steer me away from my mission
    To your eyes,
    And I'd stand there
    Like a soldier
    With my foot upon his chest.
    With my grin spread
    And my arms out
    In my bloodstained Sunday's best,
    And you'd hold me
    I'd remind you
    Who you are...
    Under their shell..

    I'd walk through hell for you.
    Let it burn right through my shoes.
    These soles are useless without you.
    Through hell for you
    Let the torturing ensue.
    My soul is useless without you

    And if they sent a whirlwind,
    I'd hug it like a harmless little tree.
    Or an earthquake,
    I'd calm it,
    And I'd bring you back to me,
    And I'd hold you
    In my weak arms like a first born.

    I'd walk through hell for you.
    Let it burn right through my shoes.
    These soles are useless without you.
    Through hell for you
    Let the torturing ensue.
    My soul is useless without you (through hell for you)

    (through hell for you) without you
    Without you (through hell for you)
    Without you (through hell for you)

    Now, I've walked through hell for you,
    What's an adventurer to do
    But rest these feet at home with you
