Neverland
Demotional Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

And it feels like poison running through my mind
An anchor of visions that just drags me down
Try to run, but no one sees
I'm withering when you are not around
Try to move forward, to stand up straight
But I fear that it's too late
When you got your back against the wall and you feel all alone out there
And the world crumbles around you
It's not that I don't care
It's just memories after all
The history we shared
But it's hard to make a breakthrough when we're breathing the same air
You just can't expect me to always be there for you
What you had is gone I'm moving on so fuck you
For not making this go easy
You never really could let go
I know that I seem cold but I want you to know
When you got your back against the wall and you feel all alone out there
And the world crumbles around you
It's not that I don't care
It's just memories after all
The history we shared
But it's hard to make a breakthrough when we're breathing the same air
It had only just begun when you decided to move on
When you got your back against the wall and you feel all alone out there
And the world crumbles around you
It's not that I don't care
It's just memories after all
The history we shared
But it's hard to make a breakthrough when we're breathing the same air
When you got your back against the wall and you feel all alone out there
And the world crumbles around you
It's not that I don't care
It's just memories after all
The history we shared
But it's hard to make a breakthrough
It's not that I don't care
When you got your back against the wall and you feel all alone out there
And the world crumbles around you
It's not that I don't care
It's just memories after all




The history we shared
But it's hard to make a breakthrough
