Mind Of A Toy |
My painted face |
Is chipped and cracked |
My mind seems |
To fade too fast |
Clutching straws |
Sinking slow |
Nothing less, nothing less |
A puppet’s motions |
Controlled by a string |
By a stranger |
I’ve never met |
A nod of the head |
And a pull of the thread |
I can’t say no, can’t say no |
When a child throws out a toy |
When I was new you wanted me |
Now I’m old you no longer see |
When a child throws out a toy |
Spiteful girl |
Hateful boy |
When a child throws out a toy |
I’m all dressed up |
And nowhere to go |
On a music box |
That never stops |
I’ll dance for you |
If you want me to |
Move in time, move in time |
A wooden head |
And a broken heart |
Used, abused |
And torn apart |
I gave you my best |
And you gave me the rest |
It’s time to die, time to die |
When a child throws out a toy |
When I was new you wanted me |
Now I’m old you no longer see |
When a child throws out a toy |
Spiteful girl |
Hateful boy |
When a child throws out a toy |
(Instrumental) |
When a child throws out a toy |
When I was new you wanted me |
Now I’m old you no longer see |
When a child throws out a toy |
Spiteful girl |
Hateful boy |
When a child throws out a toy |
(fades to music box) |
