AN: Hello everyone. I just had a discussion with my friend about the relationship between Ed and Roy. She's a big RoyEd fan while I think it's more parental.

So I took (I didn't steal!) the song "Standing" from BTVS's musical episode thingy, and tweaked it a bit.

Originally sang by Giles to Buffy.

Disclaimer: I owe nothing so don't sue!

Standing\ Roy mustang to Edward Elric

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 faith is nearing and it's all downhill

And you can bit it, but you never will

And what's the reason that you're standing still

Not I…

I wish I could say the right words to lead you through this land

Wish I could play the father and give you back your hand

Wish I could help you

But now I understand

I'm standing in the way

The cries around, you mustn't hear at all

You might save others but YOU will fall

Though we all know that you can't really stand "tall"

But I...

I wish I could lay your metal arm down

And let you rest at last

Wish I could slay your demons

But now that time has passed

Wish I could help you, your growing up too fast

But I'm standing in the way

I'm just standing in the way

AN: So what did you think? Push the button and tell me.
