I'm pulling down questions from the shelf 

I'm asking forgiveness 

I ain't asking nobody but myself 

And I want you to know this 

And I want you to know this 



You rightfully threw a box of toys 

That were handed down to me 

Just take out the ones you brought and then 

Give the rest to my family 



I'm gonna go back to school today 

But I'm dropping myself off 

I'm throwing the child seat away 

I'm through ripping myself off 

I'm done ripping myself off 



I'm child and man and child again 

A toy broken boy soldier 

I'm child and man then child again 

The boy never gets older 

The boy never gets older 

The boy never gets older 

The boy never gets older 

The boy never gets older 

Never gets older 

The boy broken toy soldier 

The boy... 

The boy!
