Won't you take me out to play
From the box of your old things
It's been years perhaps decades
Since I've seen the light of day
Dust me off and stare awhile
I'll portray a pleading smile
Remember when I was your friend
Everything made sense back then
But then you locked me in a cage
Forgot about me as you aged
I watched your conscious fill with rage
A bitter child who's so deranged
I could understand your pain
If you'd let me out to play
I could make you feel okay
Take you back to better days
You never used to be ashamed
To include me in your games
I was the star in all your plays
And the comfort you'd embrace
But then you locked me in a cage
Forgot about me as you aged
I watched your conscious fill with rage
A bitter child who's so deranged
If you'd just take me out to play
I would understand your pain
If you would free me from this cage
I could make you feel okay
If you'd let me out to play
I would take away your pain
C'mon break me from this cage
Take me back to better days
