A Walk Through Hell

And 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 'Cuz 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, without 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?
