I see you waiting, but I'm not ready
To take that first step towards home
So please be patient, God knows I'm trying
But these good intentions are not enough

You've pulled back your veil, laid it all on the line
But I've turned my back and covered my eyes

So please, please, please, please cripple me
So I cannot keep running away
Away from you

I'm walking on a wire, but you're holding it steady
And you're taking me higher, but I'm getting heavy

Just give me some time, I am almost a man
Without you by my side, I don't know who I am

So please, please, please, please cripple me
So I cannot keep running away
Away from you
