Standing Lyrics - Singles - Buffy The Vampire Slayer

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 

'Cause you know I'm here to take that call 

So you just lie there when you should be standing tall 

But I
