Almost Blue - Joseph Arthur

Playing with your toy soldiers

You don’t know what they’re for

So you just make lots of noises

Decide who wins the war

Now you’re playing with matches

Even though you’ve been warned

That something evil could happen

You don’t care 'cause you’re bored

In your hideaway

Almost new, almost blue

In your hideaway

Almost new, almost blue

In the middle of summer

It’s only you and your friends

Each of you trying to go under

But hoping it never ends

You finally make it to winter

And all rejoice in the snow

Crawling over each other

There’s nowhere else you can go

In your hideaway

Almost new, almost blue

In your hideaway

Almost new, almost blue

And you’re never going back to them

No, you’re never going back again

Till you’re blue

And you’re never going back to them

No, you’re never going back again

Till you’re blue

In your hideaway

Almost new, almost blue

In your hideaway

Almost new, almost blue

Blue
