The Toy Man

Original Music from After the Girl Lyrics - [Verse] You left them where you always do Watching everything you do Plastic eyes and painted smiles They haven’t moved Not for miles Verse 1 Every night you close your eyes Every night he comes alive Not from under, not above From inside the very things you love He never knocks He never calls He never has to move at all Pre-Chorus You never see him When you look Only when you don’t Chorus The Toy Man waits Where you feel safe The Toy Man breathes But leaves no trace The Toy Man knows Your every fear He’s always closer Than he appears Verse 2 You moved the doll Across the room But now it’s back Beside you You tell yourself You must be wrong It hasn’t moved It stayed all along But something watches Without sound Something waits Until you’re down Pre-Chorus You never hear him When he comes Only when he’s there Chorus The Toy Man waits Inside your room The Toy Man moves When you assume The Toy Man sees When no one can You never stop The Toy Man Bridge You grew up You stopped believing He never did Final Chorus The Toy Man waits For you to sleep The Toy Man keeps What he can keep The Toy Man smiles When lights go dead He’s always been Beside your bedHe never left He never will
