In Never land you never grow up

Children always are as you left them

Lacking a mother's love and care

A fathers smile and help

Never go to school

Nor learn from books

The forest and the law will teach them what they need

A million summers of enjoyment

No rules or grown ups

But beware

For with this there is no phoniness here

You laugh and play

But pirates lurk

To destroy

There is no growing

Only

To be in a glorious battle

Fighting the pirates

Swords blazing

Your leader calling out

The shouts and cries of battle

No reason to fight

Maybe there is

Then you realize you miss something

Something important

The mother's touch

Though you do not have a mother

You have Peter

The one who caught you

Your mother is gone

Your mother

You don't remember her

The tender touch

That you do not know

A ghost hanging over your skin

Suddenly you want out

The way that many may take

To be stuck on a sword

It piercing your skin

For in Never land you never can grow up

Only die.
