Welcome to Neverland

Here I stay, fixing broken things each day
By your side, rescuing treasures, saving our way
Adrift, unable to mend my broken dreams
Lost in the land where reality seems
Don't wake me from this reverie I adore
Forever waiting on this familiar shore
While you gaze at her, forevermore

I'm too naive to bear this pain
Chained to a land where I remain
Welcome to Neverland
Where pirates sail and pixies play
But reality's grip won't fray

Still trapped in Peter's fantasies with her
Still the cliché, always the observer
Still a decoy, as Armageddon takes shape
Dancing beneath the moon's soft blooms
While you dance with her in your boots
I remain, waiting by the brutes

Welcome to Neverland,
Where innocence meets a broken heart
Please, help me with his hand
For I'm a child in need of a fresh start

Welcome to Neverland
An artless, naive girl
Who can't fix her own heart
Behind those grateful boys
There's always a second choice
