Peter Pan

When was a boy, I had a book in my eye
A good head on my shoulders but a thorn in my side
I had it all figured out until I turned 16

I gathered my thoughts and I walked out the door
I said bye to my mother, I didn't need her anymore
I was full of dream and sweet ketamine when I left

I had highs, I had lows, I didn't try anymore
I grew out my hair and I lied to them all
I lived for the ups but I'd die for the Iows
Singing "I never wanna grow old"

Hello, old friend, it's good to see you again
It's been so long since we first met
I'd love to say that things haven't changed
But you've moved on and I'm still lost in Neverland
But I'm no Peter Pan

Well, now, I'm a poet with a pen in my hand
Just another lost boy trying hard to understand
Why the kid in the mirror's got a beard and a fear of his watch

I tried asking the stars how they lived in the dark
They told me it's easy when you know who you are
Well, how do you do?
I'm the boy that you thought you once knew

I have highs, I have lows, I miss flying back home
I love all my friends but I hate when they go
I tried growing up but it just wouldn't work
Singing "I never wanna grow old"

Hello, old friend, it's good to see you again
It's been so long since we first met
I'd love to say that things haven't changed
But you've moved on and I'm still

Hello, old friend, it's good to see you again
It's been so long since we first met
I'd love to say that things haven't changed
But you've moved on and I'm still lost in Neverland
But I'm no Peter Pan

Lost in Neverland but I'm no Peter Pan
