When I was much younger
I had a dream
I flew
And in the dream I touched the sky
Filled with stars
And my fingers came away wet
With their soft tears
So I licked away the droplets
That clung to me
I thought with desperation
So they could live on
And not fade with the dying
Imagination
But it was I who needed them
I used to know Neverland
But those dreams faded
While in my hands like the star's tears
I took for granted
And darker places entered my mind
Now the trees weep with winter's sobs
And the world covers itself
With an icy blanket of storms
And mourning
I wanted to dwell forever in that world
Which slowly decayed as I grew
And my dreams became haunted
With memories of you
Ones that came and went
On it's own free will
Every night I sleep
With the ghost of you and me
Sometimes spring returns
And the land is lush and a rainbow again
I smile and laugh
Able to forget for a moment
The shroud of pain you wrapped around
My living body
So I hide in my Neverland covered in ice
Where you can't touch me
Nobody can
But I guess it's alright
Even Peter Pan has nightmares
