Almost Blue
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
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
