We Are
Toys Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Holding close my secrets
Naked broken pieces
From the madness in what you do
The fingers point right back at you

What about my problems?
The people try to solve them
I guess I'm under the weather
Since no one else belongs here with me

Hello mother, some news for you
I'm really not that crazy
Hello father, I'm curious
Why you think there's something wrong with me

Sunday I cried all night
And it hurt so bad
But if you try to understand
This is who I am

Color coated sweetness
Swords beneath my clean dress
I'm making sense of shattered dreams
'Cause I want you to be proud of me

What about my problems?
The people try to solve them
I guess I'm under the weather
Since no one else belongs here with me

Hello mother, some news for you
I'm really not that crazy
Hello father, I'm curious
Why you think there's something wrong with me

Sunday I cried all night
And it hurt so bad




But if you try to understand
This is who I am

Overall Meaning

Toys's song "We Are" tells the story of a narrator who is struggling with their identity and the judgments of others. The first verse portrays the singer as someone who is holding onto secrets and broken pieces, likely alluding to some past trauma that has left them damaged. The lyrics "from the madness in what you do, the fingers point right back at you" suggest that the singer may feel judged or criticized by others who are projecting their own internal issues onto them.


The second verse highlights the struggle of feeling alone and misunderstood, even by those closest to the singer. The lines "what about my problems? The people try to solve them, I guess I'm under the weather, since no one else belongs here with me" emphasize the feeling of being isolated and neglected. The chorus repeats the sentiment that the singer is who they are, and while it may be painful to come to terms with, they must be accepted for who they are.


The third verse describes the singer's efforts to present a certain persona to the world, even though there are aspects of themselves that they keep hidden. The final lines, "I'm making sense of shattered dreams, 'cause I want you to be proud of me" suggest that the singer is struggling to reconcile their own personal desires with the expectations of others.


Overall, "We Are" is a poignant exploration of the challenging journey towards self-acceptance and the complexities of the human experience.

The voice acting is horrible and hilarious at the same time but it genuinely is a well made game

@theautumnwind8437

I’m pretty sure it’s supposed to be somewhat bad.

@jasonhansen8035

It being horrible makes it good but props to the creator for letting muscle man voice one of the endo dudes

@yosuan3903

I am in high belief that this game is intended to be a well-made joke horror game, this would explain the "bad" voice acting and the so-called "Billy the Rabbit" (who actually pretty much looks like Bon from the Walten Files, but that is most obviously a joke) I think the concept of it as a whole was just meant to be goofy, harmless fun. I'm just saying that, I'm tired of people taking this game seriously when it obviously has key details of BEING a JOKE GAME

@rabeyaakter1307

But the person who created this made Rickey rat and Rickey rat doesn’t have a joke story tho the characters and enemies seem like jokes

@absolutelydemented

@@rabeyaakter1307 You do have a point on this. However, they are separate games. Who knows, I could be wrong, but I dislike how many people are so critical of Us Are Toys when it feels its sole purpose is to be bad-seeming in terms of the voice acting, and potentially some other contents. It feels like a joke, overall, joke or not, I genuinely feel the concept of this game is great and deserves its popularity it had.
