Just a toy

Look at my mouth, a thin painted line
Look at my limbs, bent up and bundled in twine
Forever, ever mine
Form of a tree, shape of a child
I wish I could cry, stuck in a permanent smile
Forever, ever mine
I know you must have loved me sometime
But now I´m just a toy
I know you must have loved me sometime
But now I´m just a toy
First there was me, nothing but time
Till he came along, you told me you´d always be mine
Forever, ever mine
Look at his face, somewhat like mine
But look at his nose, you can always be sure that he´s lying
Forever, ever mine
I know you must have loved me sometime
But now I´m just a toy
I know you must have loved me sometime
But now I´m just a toy
Who needs you
A boy-to-be who
Needs to be
Better than him, worthy of you
Given the chance that he had, I know what I´d do
Forever, ever mine
I call him liar, you call him son
If I could move, I´d set him on fire and I´d run
Forever
I know you must have loved me sometime
But now I´m just a toy
I know you must have loved me sometime
But now I´m just a toy
Look at my limbs, bent up and bundled in twine
Forever, ever mine
Form of a tree, shape of a child
I wish I could cry, stuck in a permanent smile
Forever, ever mine
I know you must have loved me sometime
But now I´m just a toy
I know you must have loved me sometime
But now I´m just a toy
First there was me, nothing but time
Till he came along, you told me you´d always be mine
Forever, ever mine
Look at his face, somewhat like mine
But look at his nose, you can always be sure that he´s lying
Forever, ever mine
I know you must have loved me sometime
But now I´m just a toy
I know you must have loved me sometime
But now I´m just a toy
Who needs you
A boy-to-be who
Needs to be
Better than him, worthy of you
Given the chance that he had, I know what I´d do
Forever, ever mine
I call him liar, you call him son
If I could move, I´d set him on fire and I´d run
Forever
I know you must have loved me sometime
But now I´m just a toy
I know you must have loved me sometime
But now I´m just a toy
