(Verse 1) 
 
Broken beer, 
Shattered tears, 
When you said that you were leaving. 
Though I can’t, 
Understand, 
Yeah my age was too deceiving to cry. 
 
Mama said, 
Look ahead, 
At the age of understanding. 
Yet I fled, 
Towards the dead, 
My audience was demanding a sigh. 
They were demanding a sigh. 
 
(PreChorus) 
 
Dewdrop daisies, 
Never fazed me, 
Until they faded... whoa. 
 
(Chorus) 
 
Run into my room, lie my toys. 
But where’s my toy box once filled with  
Joy, joy. 
Now my heart’s mixed up end fed up, 
I can hardly live, but good luck. 
Joy, joy. 
It happens to some, they say it does, 
But now as I live, love will always be what it was. 
 
(Verse 2) 
 
They say fists, 
Do exist. 
And I really do believe them. 
But when it comes, 
Down to love, 
It can leave and go drown in a dam... 
A dam... 
A dam. 
 
When he left, I declared it my dying day, 
And I kept my suicide chain along the way... 
Whoa... 
 
(Chorus) 
 
Run into my room, lie my toys. 
But where’s my toy box once filled with  
Joy, joy.
