LITTLE BROKEN TOY

You treated me like a child’s plaything

I was your little toy

I loved to be your little teddy bear

Your little broken toy

-

I thought you were happy

Just like I was too

But obviously not now

Now you’re gone

-

Those happy days

When pleasure coursed through the veins

Our blood was made up of memories

Memories of happy days

-

I was your little rag doll

Ta petite poupée

Damaged, vulnerable, full of weakness

Liable to fall

-

Liable to fall

To fall from your grace

I’m not just your broken toy

I’m your fallen angel

-

But now

It’s all change

People come, people go away

You came, you went away

-

And without you

I’m just a discarded plaything

An abandoned teddy bear

I’m just your little broken toy

-

Ta petite poupée

Has wasted away

My weak and damaged self

Is in poor health

-

You left me to rot

You left me to decay

You left me to perish

Ta petite poupée

-

How could you do that to me?

I just melted into alloy

How could you do that to anyone?

Especially your little broken toy

-

So come and patch me up

With your needle and thread

A sewing kit of rehabilitation

Stitch me up again

-

Stitch me up

Extend your hand

Help me onto my feet again

Just understand

-

Pull me up from this dark place

This realm of shadow I sleep in

Take me into your deep embrace

And let us go

-

Let us go

Into that burning light

Hug me, kiss me, comfort me

I’ll do the same to you

-

Inside, I may be the broken toy

But on the outside, I’m the same to you

But only you can mend the inside broken toy

Then we can start anew

-

If you can hear me now

I beg of you please

Take me back again

Give me that new lease

-

Because I’m still that feeble broken toy

Damaged and vulnerable too

The only medicine I can procure

Is the very thought of you

-

But that’s just treatment

Thought’s no cure

If you come back

Could you give me that cure?

-

When that little concoction

Spills down my throat so coy

It could get me back onto my feet again

As a whole and mended toy

-

It could get me back onto my feet again

As a whole and mended toy
