My painted face is chipped and cratcked

My mind seems to fade too fast

Clutching straws, sinking slow

Nothing lasts, nothing lasts





A puppets motions controlled by a string

By a stranger I've never met

A nod of the head and a pull of a thread

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





When a child throws down a toy

When I was new you wanted me

Now I'm old you no longer see me

When a child throws down a toy

Spite for girl, hate for boy

When a child throws out a toy





I'm all dressed up and no where to go

On a music box that never stop

I'll dance for 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

It's time to die, time to die
