lyrics

IT’S NOT EASY TO BE ME
I DREAM WHEN I WAKE UP
I WAKE WHEN I GO TO SLEEP
PRETTY UNCONFORTABLE,
WATCHING INSIDE OF ME
I SEE JUST WHO I’M NOT
IS IT MY FAULT?

IT’S NOT EASY TO BE ME
I WANT TO BE EVERYONE
LIVE EVERYTHING
I’M THE ONE SUPPOSED TO BE
ALWAYS IN THE RIGHT PLACE
ALWAYS JUST IN TIME
IT’S NOT EASY TO BE FREE
IF YOY NEVER GET ENOUGH, UNABLE TO STOP
AND TOO ASHAMED, AND SO MUCH SHY
SO I SPREAD THIS THIN SMILE
I NEVER GET SATISFIED

AND I’ LL NEVER CRY OUT
I WILL NEVER BREAK OUT
I BUILD MY OWN TOYS
I’M NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO LIVE WITHOUT
I’M A DROP IN MY SEA
I’M THE CLOUD OVER ME
AND FOR EVERY LEAF THAT’S FALLING FROM A TREE
I FEEL THE GUILT

IT’S NOT EASY TO BE ME

LOCKED INTO A BULLETPROOF SHELL
TRAPPED ON THE WRONG SIDE
NOWHERE I CAN HIDE
FARAWAY I RUN BUT… WHERE?
I’M DOING CIRCLES
I’M FINDING NO ONE
IT’S NOT EASY TO BE FREE
IF YOY NEVER GET ENOUGH, UNABLE TO STOP
ALL THE QUESTIONS OF TODAY…
I CUT WITH A COLD SMILE
THAT NEVER CAN SATISFY

AND I’ LL NEVER CRY OUT…

SO CHOOSE WHAT YOU WANT ME TO BE
MAYBE PRESIDENT
MAYBE LOST AND DAMNED
MAKE ME LOVABLE
MAYBE DANGEROUS
MAYBE INDIFFERENT
FUNNY SERIOUS
I’M AN EMPTY CAGE
GOT MY SOUL TO RENT
CHOOSE ALL FURNITURES
PAINT ON EVERY WALL
MAKE ME SOMETHING ELSE
MAYBE PRESIDENT
MAYBE LOST AND DAMNED
MAYBE NOT ME YET
MAY I BE WITH YOU
MAY I GROW UP, GROW UP, GROW UP…
AND BREAK OUT

I BUILD MY OWN TOYS…

about

Toygrace Roma, Italy

Average or not, this is Toygrace. Toygrace is Ema's mind and Laura's voice, a peculiar crossing between british and mediterranean taste, old fashioned melodies and modern sounds, formed in Rome, Italy, in summer 2009, from the encounter of Ema (composer, keyboardist, guitarist, producer) and Laura (vocalist). Nothing pre-figured, just average feelings from average people. ... more
