Broken Toy Lyrics
i agree with bloc party. at first i really wasn't sure about this ong at all but the more i listened to it and got my interpretation of it, i really loved it. basically everything that block party said. you find someone that you can finally love and then they make it so difficult for you. he is willing to give his partner everything and they're just not interested. "i want to stay another season" ... he wants more time for their relationship, again the other person won't have it. by the end he's realizing that its best for it to be over no matter how much he doesn't want that. idk thats my interpretation of it. i really loveee this song and the entire "under the iron sea" cd.
Not sure if I like this song yet Sounds like he's always there for his partner but she ignores it. Broken toy is like being disgarded - pushed aside Like they have grown apart - things arent the same anymore
Yes, most of it is pretty self explanatory, but what does
So don't dust off your gun Without a reason You understand
mean?
(to the last comment) it could mean, dont have a go at me or something like that without having a proper reason for it
I love this song, the lyrics are very good, for me it's like, when you love a girl and she gets tired of you, but you still care for her, "I guess I'm a toy that is broken".
I have actually heard quite a bit that the song is about the relationship between Tim and Richard-it was written at the time when the Hopes & Fears had just ended, and they were sick of each other-it seems to be about a deconstruction of a friendship or other kind of relationship
Worst song on 'Under the Iron Sea' hands down. It sounds a lot like 'Pyramid Song' by Radiohead, but it's not nearly as engaging. It's too long, too.
Filmguy is right, it's about Tim and Tom. They apparently had huge communication problems as a band. I guess Tim felt kinda let down.. he just cares about his friend and wants to get over the dark times.
I love the sound of this song. The lyrics, too. If it is about a guy loving a girl who doesnt care about him, then hell knows i know what thats like...
this song about the relationship between tom and tim and as it's seems tom doesn't care about tim feeling as tim do for him .........
