Lyrics
Toy Soldier
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Wrong choice's been made
And I should have taken chance
Instead of being on both sides of the fence
When soaking wet I find the shelter from the rain
The victory's claimed but life is slowly draining away
Head or tails? Not a game
In this crowd you feel alone
Save your skin Pretend to win
World's just a stage that we act upon
Playing dead I cut thread
To keep me away from all the things you've said
A bigger part of wishbone's pulled
By those who always scream for more
After the whole damn trip I've drowned almost reaching the shore
Vengeance
Tastes better when served cold
Lunatic Lie in ambush
God knows I must get even with you
Fed with the promises
Honour and pride
This is your big chance my little boy
Now everything's painted black
Fetters are broken
One word never spoken
That old dog can only bark
Head or tails? Not a game
In this crowd you feel alone
Save your skin Pretend to win
World's just a stage that we act upon
Courage Is what you're made of
Now I'm weak and feel betrayed
Stabbed in the back
Toy soldier who's always been a cannon-fodder
