I'll never be
A knight in armor
with a sword in hand
or a kamikaze fighter
don't count on me
to storm the barricades
and take a stand,
or hold my ground
you'll never see
any scars or wounds
I don't walk on coals,
I won't walk on water
I am no prince,
I am no saint,
I am not anyones wildest dream,
but I will stand behind
and be someone to fall back on
some comedy
you're bruised and beaten down
and I'm the one
who's looking for a favor
still, honestly,
you don't believe me
but the things I have,
are the things you need
you look at me
like I don't make sense,
like a waste of time,
like it serves no purpose
I am no prince,
I am no saint,
And if that's what you believe you need
you're wrong
you don't need much,
you need someone to fall back on
and I'll be that
I'll take your side
if I'm the only one
I'm used to that,
I've been alone,
I'd rather be,
The half of us,
the least of you,
the best of me.
And I will be,
I'll be your prince,
I'll be your saint,
I will go crashing through fences.
In your name. I will, I swear
I'll be someone to fall back on!
I'll be the one who waits,
and for as long as you'll let me,
I will be the one you need.
I'll be someone to fall back on
I'll be someone to fall back on,
one to fall back on...
