Just So You Know, by Amory McKeever

I'll do all of this babe

just so you know

I'll do all these things

before I ever let you go

I'll crawl through the butterflies

killed for the spider

Bury myself in charcoal
and light my own lighter
I'll give up my organs
my freedom and more

Run into a padded cell

and let 'em lock the door

I'll face down the dragons

your tongue might release

Pray away the demons

so your faith may increase

I’ll pick you up when you fall

and carry you home

Be your shelter in the storm

You’ll never face it alone

I'll do all of this babe

just so you know

I'll do all these things

before I ever let you go

I'll walk north and walk south

east or out west

Come to the mountainside

and climb without rest

I'll blister and frostbite

chap my lips in the wind

Endure every heartache

and never hope for the end

I'll stand on the dark side

where the sun doesn't glow

Scream down the avalanche

and die in the snow

I'll do all of this babe

just so you know

I'll do all these things

before I ever let you go

I'll do all of this babe

just so you know

I'll do all these things

before I ever let you go
