If these are the last days of our youth
Then I wanna know that we went down burning
If this is the last I'll see of you
Then I wanna laugh till my face is hurting
Everybody's making babies
But I just wanna sit on your roof
And watch the city lights collide
Everybody's saying maybe
It's time to get a good job
And prove that you'd survive in real life
But I'm still staring in the mirror
At 3 AM, sad to wash the glitter off
And I'm still scared to make decisions
Just breathing in, hoping that I'm big enough
So go and tell me all the ways I could've been somebody
Show me how I'm not enough (can we keep pretending?)
So go and hit me in the face when I am feeling sorry
Tell me what I should've done (can we keep pretending?)
'Cause I just wanna live in Neverland forever
With all my friends
If these were the best days of our lives
Then I wanna know that we kept them breathing
Gold lips and glances in the night
Give me your hand while your heart's still beating
When your memories are fading
This one will be phosphorescent
Still alive
You were everyone's favorite
Shame you didn't see it
Till the closing time
But I'm still staring in the mirror
At 3 AM, sad to wash the glitter off (can we keep pretending?)
And I'm still scared to make decisions
Just breathing in, hoping that I'm big enough (can we keep pretending?)
So go and tell me all the ways I could've been somebody
Show me how I'm not enough
So go and hit me in the face when I am feeling sorry
Tell me what I should've done
'Cause I just wanna live in Neverland forever
With all my friends
You make me feel like I'm forever young
You make me feel like I'm forever young
You make me feel like I'm forever young
You make me feel like I'm forever young
You make me feel like I'm forever young
But I'm still staring in the mirror
(You make me feel like I'm forever young)
At 3 AM
(You make me feel like I'm forever young)
And I'm still scared to make decisions
(You make me feel like I'm forever young)
Just breathing in
(You make me feel like I'm forever young)
(And I'm still staring in the mirror)
So go and tell me all the ways I could've been somebody
(You make me feel like I'm forever young)
Show me how I'm not enough
(At 3 AM)
(You make me feel like I'm forever young)
(And I'm still scared to make decisions)
So go and hit me in the face when I am feeling sorry
(You make me feel like I'm forever young)
Tell me what I should've done
(Just breathe it in)
(You make me feel like I'm forever young)
Neverland was written by Kyla La Grange.
Neverland was produced by Liam Howe.
Kyla La Grange released Neverland on Thu Oct 28 2021.
I wrote it when I was feeling really shit about myself and questioning a lot of things, and was just so lucky that I had friends who could pull me out of it, who could make me laugh, even at the darkest and most terrifying parts of being alive. I guess in a way it’s a tribute to the ones who keep yo...
“Neverland” is inspired by all the people I know who don’t want to grow up, and the magic of playfulness, of making every night something to remember, of old friends and new friends and keeping your imagination burning, of holding onto silliness and spontaneity and all the things that make life feel...
