Toy Soldier |
| Follow the march of the battle drum |
| And bury the questions where they came from |
| Just pretend if I’m starting to regret it tomorrow |
| Killing it all |
| Push it back down every time but still I felt it rise from the trenches the |
| stolen happy endings I chased |
| Cause I can’t conquer this without you |
| These bullets still won’t get through |
| But I’m still crashing down cause there’s more walls I need to break through |
| I do this to myself every time |
| Cause that’s the only way that I surviv |
| So Cover up my flaws |
| And run when you hear my call in th night |
| Cause lately I’ve been caught in the middle and I’m just Getting older |
| Will you be there to stop my fall |
| I know you’ve seen it all in my eyes |
| So break down the lies cause I know that |
| I could never be the toy soldier |
| I followed our path, you became my home |
| Now artillery fire casts your shadow |
| Through the fragments that we lost |
| I traded love for fame, despite the cost |
| When did our love turn to sacrifice, I try |
| But these broken wings won’t fly |
| Without someone to make it right |
| I’ll leave the city just to make it back tonight |
| Cause I can’t conquer this without you |
| These bullets still won’t get through |
| But I’m still crashing down cause there’s more walls I need to break through |
| I do this to myself every time |
| Cause that’s the only way that I survive |
| So Cover up my flaws |
| And run when you hear my call in the night |
| Cause lately I’ve been caught in the middle and I’m just Getting older |
| Will you be there to stop my fall |
| I know you’ve seen it all in my eyes |
| So break down the lies cause I know that |
| I could never be the toy soldier |
| Act your age |
| Cause the world will not change |
| For a child with a cape |
| Your savior awaits |
| In the fields where you once learned that you could fly |
| Manhattan lights they spoke, they told you that all these things will come in |
| time |
| Ships in the night, they wrote, and they said that love shines auburn in the |
| night |
| Manhattan lights they spoke, they told you that all these things will come in |
| time |
| So don’t lose sight, you’ll change a life |
| You’ll change a life |
| So Cover up my flaws |
| And run when you hear my call in the night |
| Cause lately I’ve been caught in the middle and I’m just Getting older |
| Will you be there to stop my fall |
| I know you’ve seen it all in my eyes |
| So break down the lies cause I know that |
| I could never be the toy soldier |
