Testo Toy Soldier - Livingston

Testo della canzone Toy Soldier (Livingston), tratta dall'album An Unlikely Origin Story

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

And they told you that all these things will come in time

Ships in the night, they wrote

And they said that love shines auburn through the night

The Manhattan lights they spoke

And they told you that all these things will come in time

So don't lose sight, 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
