Visage - Mind Of A Toy lyrics

rate me

My painted face is chipped and cracked

My mind seems to fade too fast

Clutching straws, sinking slow

Nothing less, nothing less

A puppet's motions controlled by a string by a stranger I've never met

A nod of the head and a pull of the thread

I can't say no, I can't say no

When a child throws out a toy

When I was new you wanted me

Now I'm old you no longer see

When a child throws out a toy

Spiteful girl, hateful boy

When a child throws out a toy

(Instrumental)

All dressed up and nowhere to go

Or the music box that never stops

I'll dance for you if you want me to

Move in time, move in time

A wooden head and a broken heart

Used abused and torn apart

I gave you my best and you gave me the rest

There's time to die, time to die

When a child throws out a toy

When I was new you wanted me

Now I'm old you no longer see

When a child throws out a toy

Spiteful girl, hateful boy

When a child throws out a toy

(Instrumental)

When a child throws out a toy

When I was new you wanted me

Now I'm old you no longer see

When a child throws out a toy

Spiteful girl, hateful boy

When a child throws out a toy

(fades to music box then stops)<br />
