Toys Lyrics

We can't dwell on what could've been
All apologies
The road that stretches out is calling us to find our way back home
You said it yourself, you said it yourself

I know I'm hard to stomach
But we need to move and get out of here
Before this joint erupts
And anywhere we go, we'll feel stuck

Oh, what you want from me is not impossible
Just give me some time to figure a way out of this mess
For you and me and I will, I will

Oh, you said it yourself, you said it yourself
What you said, when you said what you need from me

All apologies won't make things right with you tonight
Oh, can't you see, as you drag me, I'm your favorite toy
Oh, I'm so sorry but make up your mind, we're out of time
Oh, mama, please, I'm on my knees, I'm your favorite boy

Now it's hard for me to come clean and I'll tell you why
I'm too damn ashamed, too damn ashamed
Did you miss me? Don't you lie
See, I told you so

Your broken heart is all my fault
There's no room to disguise
Oh, don't you cry, don't you cry

Oh, you said it yourself, you said it yourself
What you said, when you said what you need from me

All apologies won't make things right with you tonight
Oh, can't you see, you're dragging me, I'm your favorite toy
Oh, I'm so sorry but make up your mind, we're out of time
Oh, mama, please, I'm on my knees, I'm your favorite boy

Your favorite boy, your favorite boy
Your favorite boy, your favorite boy
Your favorite boy, your favorite boy

Oh, you said it yourself, you said it yourself
What you said, when you said what you need from me

All apologies won't make things right for you tonight
Oh, can't you see , you're dragging me, I'm your favorite toy
Oh, I'm so sorry but make up your mind, we're out of time
Oh, mama, please, I'm on my knees, I'm your favorite boy

Cover art for Toys lyrics by Coheed and Cambria

Nostrand ends up being knocked unconscious while searching for answers about Nia's whereabouts - and whether she could still be alive - and wakes up in the lower levels of the Dark Sentencer, which are presided over by a mysterious woman known as the Glass Widow, who chooses to sentence individuals brought to her either to death - where they will be processed into food for the workers - or to serve, mining the last remaining vestiges of energy from the dying planet's core.

It takes Nostrand all of an instant as he is being sentenced to realize that the Glass Widow is, in fact, Nia, alive and well. She comes to him at night and explains in no uncertain terms that she blames him for leaving her behind in the bank, but that he can make it up to her by helping her free all of the enslaved energy miners and rallying them to take over the prison while she plots an escape.

This song is from Nastrond telling her he understands that she is upset and he wants to explain and apologize for everything that happened, but he won't stay behind - he intends for the both of them to escape this planet.
