(Giles:)
You're not ready for the world outside
You keep pretending but you just can't hide
I know I said that I'd be standing by your side,
But I…
Your path's unbeaten and it's all uphill
And you can meet it, but you never will
And I'm the reason that you're standing still
But I…
I wish I could say the right words to lead you through this land,
Wish I could play the father and take you by the hand
Wish I could stay, but now I understand,
I'm standing in the way
The cries around you, you don't hear at all
Cuz you know I'm here to take the call,
So you just lie there when you should be standing tall,
But I…
I wish I could lay your arms down and let you rest at last,
Wish I could slay your demons, but now that time has passed,
Wish I could stay, you stalwart standing-fast,
But I'm standing in the way,
I'm just standing in the way
