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 survivе So Cover up my flaws And run when you hear my call in thе 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
