I HAVE BEEN WHERE YOU FEAR TO BE,
I HAVE SEEN WHAT YOU FEAR TO SEE,
I HAVE DONE WHAT YOU FEAR TO DO,
ALL THESE THINGS I HAVE DONE FOR YOU.
I AM THE PERSON YOU DEPEND UPON,
THE ONE YOU CAST YOUR SCORN UPON,
THE ONE YOU BRING YOU PROBLEMS TO
ALL THROUGH THE STORM I'M THERE FOR YOU.
THE ONE YOU ASK TO STAND APART,
THE ONE YOU ASK TO LIGHT THE DARK,
THE ONE YOU CALL TO LIGHT YOUR WAY,
BUT I'M JUST A PERSON, I WORK, I PLAY.
AND THROUGH THE YEARS I'VE COME TO SEE,
HOW MUCH YOU'VE GROWN TO DEPEND ON ME,
SO TAKE THESE TOOLS THAT I USE,
WILL ANYONE FILL MY SHOES?
AND WHEN YOU WATCH A FRIEND DIE,
AND WHEN HIS WIFE AND CHILDREN CRY,
THEN DO YOU THINK THAT YOU CAN BE,
ALL THE THINGS YOU ASK OF ME?
