Toy Soldiers
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.
It wasn't my intention to mislead you
It never should've been this way
What can I say?
It's true, I did extend the invitation
I never knew how long you'd stay
When you hear temptation call
It's your heart that takes
Takes the fall
(Oh, won't you come out and play with me?)
Step by step, heart to heart (Heart to heart)
Left, right, left, we all fall down (All fall down)
Like toy soldiers
Bit by bit (Bit by bit), torn apart (Torn apart)
We never win, but the battle wages on
For toy soldiers
It's getting hard to wake up in the morning
My head is spinning constantly
How could it be?
And how could I be so blind to this addiction?
If I don't stop, the next one's gonna be me
Only emptiness remains
It replaces all
All the pain
(Oh, won't you come out and play with me?)
Step by step, heart to heart (Heart to heart)
Left, right, left, we all fall down (All fall down)
Like toy soldiers
Bit by bit (Bit by bit), torn apart (Torn apart)
We never win, but the battle wages on
For toy soldiers
We never win
When you hear temptation call
It's your heart that takes
Takes the fall
(Oh, won't you come out and play with me?)
Step by step, heart to heart (Heart to heart)
Left, right, left, we all fall down (All fall down)
Like toy soldiers
Bit by bit (Bit by bit), torn apart (Torn apart)
We never win, but the battle wages on
For toy soldiers
Ooh, ooh
Ooh
