Artful Fox - I'm Alive, Not Your Toy

[Verse 1]
You look into my eyes
Like I’m some kind of game
Pulling all my strings
But I won’t take the blame
You dress me up in names
Then hide me when you’re bored
I’m breaking from your shelf
I’m walking through that door

[Pre-Chorus]
I’m alive
I’m alive
Can’t you hear my heart burn
Don’t you dare
Don’t you dare
Treat me like your return
I’m not a toy
Not a toy
That you throw and destroy
I’m alive
I’m alive
Not your broken decoy

[Chorus]
I’m alive
Not your doll
Not your pretty little lie
Not a prize on your wall
Not a thing you can buy
You can’t bend
You can’t break what you never designed
I’m alive
Not your doll
I’m a pulse
I’m a mind

[Verse 2]
You talk like you control every step that I take
But I rewrite the rules every move that I make
You’re trying to rewind
But the tape has run through
The story that I’m telling doesn’t circle back to you

[Pre-Chorus]
I’m alive
I’m alive
Can’t you hear my heart burn
Don’t you dare
Don’t you dare
Treat me like your return
I’m not a toy
Not a toy
That you throw and destroy
I’m alive
I’m alive
Not your broken decoy

[Chorus]
I’m alive
Not your doll
Not your pretty little lie
Not a prize on your wall
Not a thing you can buy
You can’t bend
You can’t break what you never designed
I’m alive
Not your doll
I’m a pulse
I’m a mind

[Bridge]
Every scar
Every scar
Tells a truth you denied
Every tear
Every tear
Washed your paint from my eyes
You can beg
You can plead
But you can’t press rewind
I’m alive
I’m alive
And I’m taking back my life

[Chorus]
I’m alive
Not your doll
Not your pretty little lie
Not a prize on your wall
Not a thing you can buy
You can’t bend
You can’t break what you never designed
I’m alive
Not your doll
I’m a pulse
I’m a mind
