Toy Soldier

(album: Waves And The Both Of Us - 2008)

You're bankrupt in your
You're bankrupt in your heart
Don't even look at me
My words could shatter glass
And as a toy soldier from my past
I have no use for you, I took you off my shelf
Don't you know I'm here for someone else
Don't be so charming, don't be so charming

Severely lonely but that doesn't bother me
I got a boy on the corner who'd love to be
Kissing me, hugging me, holding me tight
I won't feel the need to call you at night
No, no, no, no, no

I take it back, all I've ever said
All the things I never really meant
Take me back, I want my toy soldier
It's okay if we play pretend
I promise to forget
You're plastic and on my shelf
Let's fake romance and I'll be someone else

Don't even touch me, my hands are cold as ice
And as a toy soldier in my life
Have nothing left to give
And all this fighting hurts
The more I yell at you the less you seem to learn
No, no, no, no, no

I take it back, all I've ever said
All the things I never really meant
Take me back, I want my toy soldier
It's okay if we play pretend
I promise to forget
You're plastic and on my shelf
Let's fake romance and I'll be someone else

You're bankrupt in your
You're bankrupt in your heart
You're bankrupt in your
You're bankrupt in your heart
But I still feel the need
To see you through the night

I take it back, all I've ever said
All the things I never really meant
Take me back, I want my toy soldier
It's okay if we play pretend
I promise to forget
You're plastic and on my shelf
Let's fake romance and I'll be someone else

I take it back, all I've ever said
All the things I never really meant
Take me back, I want my toy soldier
It's okay if we play pretend
I promise to forget
You're plastic and on my shelf
Let's fake romance and I'll be someone else
