(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
