Can you see then where I stand, my friend?

Will you offer me your helping hand?

And will you cross the void and speak the words?

Rush, I'm beggin' you, it hurts

It hurts, it hurts, yes it hurts



I'm standing back against the wall

Dare I to move I got to fall

My heart is blinded by the light

I close my eyes forever

May not turn left, may not turn right

I sense a gap to every side

I'm standing back against the wall

Back against the wall



I can hear it coming closer now

Blaring silence of the dark below

Under my feet I feel it slide like sand

A frequent crushing down

Again, again, again and again



I'm standing back against the wall

Dare I to move I got to fall

My heart is blinded by the light

I close my eyes forever

May not turn left, may not turn right

I sense a gap to every side

I'm standing back against the wall

Back against the wall



Will you cross the void of pride?

Then speak the words

Rush, I'm beggin' you, it hurts

It hurts, it hurts, yes it hurts



I'm standing back against the wall

Dare I to move I got to fall

My heart is blinded by the light

I close my eyes forever

May not turn left, may not turn right

I sense a gap to every side

I'm standing back against the wall

Back against the wall
