| 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 here
|
| 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 that 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 here, your stalwart, standing fast
|
| But I’m standing in the way
|
| I’m just standing in the way
|
| BUFFY
|
| Did you just say something to me, called Buffy? |
