Toy Soldiers

from Extra Chaos by Eddie Rifkind

/

lyrics

i don't claim to know you any better than i do
but you are wonderful to these eyes
i don't need possession of a single part of you
i just love to watch you as you fly

i don't want to feel myself
i don't want to be myself
i don't want to free myself
i don't want to see

neurons in a line like lemmings
line the cliffs of our unconscious
unfulfilled childhood revenge
we need to fight
we play our love like soldiers
toy soldiers

who was at war
who are we now
do we embrace the scars
and love what's broken

don't know you better than i think i do
don't need to own a single part of you
just love to see you fly
