Toy Soldiers”

[Intro]

[Guitar Solo]

[Pre-Intro]

(Verse 1)
It started with words, just lines in a song
Didn’t think anybody would take it this wrong
We were all cool, just doing our thing
Now it’s turning into something bigger than me

I see the tension every time that we speak
Like one wrong move and it all could just leak
I never wanted it to go this far
Now I’m watching everything fall apart

(Hook)
Now we’re marching like toy soldiers in a line
No one really knows the reason why
We keep fighting wars we didn’t plan
Losing pieces of who we are again

(Verse 2)
People keep talking, they’re feeding the flame
Turning small problems into something insane
And I tried to ignore it, tried to stay back
But it’s hard when they keep putting fuel on the track

I got love for the ones I once called my team
But this isn’t what loyalty’s supposed to mean
If it costs us everything just to be right
Then maybe it’s time that we step out the fight

(Hook)
Now we’re marching like toy soldiers in a line
No one really knows the reason why
We keep fighting wars we didn’t plan
Losing pieces of who we are again

(Bridge)
I’d rather take the blame than watch it explode
‘Cause once it’s out there, there’s no control
And I’ve seen how it ends, it don’t ever heal
Just a cycle of pain that keeps getting real

(Verse 3)
So I’m saying it now, I’m done with the war
I won’t be the reason we lose any more
If you feel the same, then lay it down too
‘Cause nobody wins when it’s me against you

(Outro)
Toy soldiers… falling again
But it don’t have to be like this in the end
[Guitar Solo]

I’ve seen how it ends when nobody lets go
One wrong step turns a bruise into a blow
And I ain’t tryna write another name in stone
Over something that was never worth the throne

Yeah, I got my pride, but it’s costing too much
‘Cause every burned bridge used to start with a touch
Now it’s all cold nights and a deafening silence
Built from a moment that turned into violence

I’m looking back now, like “what did we gain?”
Just a handful of anger and a lifetime of pain
So if I take the fall just to break this chain
Then I’ll carry that weight, let it fall on my name

⸻

(Outro / Epilog – ruhig, eindringlich)
If you’re hearing this… it ain’t too late
We can still walk away before it turns to hate
No more lines in the sand, no more taking sides
Just two broken roads we don’t have to ride

We ain’t soldiers… we don’t have to pretend
Every war can stop, it don’t have to end
With another loss, another scar to hold
We can choose right now… not to fall like toy soldiers
[Guitar Solo]
