Tiny Soldiers

from The Joy by M&O

lyrics

[Verse 1]

Time
Keeps dripping from my fists like water
Wish I could learn to keep forever
Like a well-behaved pet

Lo
Behold the power of the mental
I learned the hard way
Don't be gentle
If you can't forgive, you must forget

[Prechorus]
Burn the bedsheets, message delete
Break the mirror, crack the rearview
I can banish you from my mind

[Verse 2]
Put your pictures
In the dumpster, in the alley
Poured myself a glass of cherry whiskey
Toasted your absence, and my good health

[Prechorus]
Burn the bedsheets, message delete
Break the mirror, crack the rearview
I can banish you from my mind

Promises and nicknames: forget
Erase every word that you said
I can banish you from my mind

[Chorus]
Tiny Soldiers on the front lines of my mind
Waging war against the thought of you
tiny Soldiers they will fight here all night
Raging strong against the you I knew

...

If you can't forgive, you must forget
