Heavy Boots

I kept my face in it so I knew nothing but your scent
I stayed there far too long the feeling soured and now I'm wrong
And nothing works
Nothing holds, nothing slips and nothing hurts

You are the ground, you are the earth
You poison me, you bear the fruit
I'll wear my curse, I'll tie your name
Tight to my tongue and wear heavy boots

I cut a hole in love deep enough for both of us
Now that it's all over I'm cursed to haunt the thing we were
And nothing works
Nothing holds, nothing slips and nothing hurts
God let it hurt

You are the ground, you are the earth
You poison me, you bear the fruit
I'll wear my curse, I'll tie your name
Tight to my tongue and wear my heavy boots

If you're the ground where seas will part
I'll walk right through and I'll stop hard
If you're the ground where seas will part
I'll walk right through and I'll step hard

You are the ground, you are the earth
You poison me, you bear the fruit
I'll wear my curse, I'll tie your name
Tight to my tongue and wear heavy boots
