This poignant piece captures the longing for a simpler time, echoing the sentiments of J.M. Barrie's Peter Pan who famously refused to grow up. The lyrics suggest a sense of disillusionment with adulthood and its accompanying responsibilities, yearning for the freedom and innocence of childhood. The protagonist is seen grappling with life's complexities, using the metaphor of flying away to brighter days as a means of escape. This song serves as a commentary on how society often romanticizes childhood while overlooking the harsh realities that come with growing up. Ultimately, it's about finding solace in one's imagination when reality becomes too overwhelming. #Nostalgia #GrowingUp
Peter Pan Was Right
Lyrics
I guess Peter Pan was right
Growing up's a waste of time
So I think I'll fly away
Set a course for brighter days
Find the second star, I'm soaring
Then straight on to the morning
I know that I'll be fine
'Cause I know Peter Pan was right
Just a lost boy in a small town
I'm the same kid but I'm grown now
Tryna make it out
But I don't know how
Wish that I was young
What have I become
Now it's late night and I'm at home
So I make friends with my shadow
And I play him all my sad, sad songs
And we don't talk
But he sings along like
Ooh
Fairy tales are not the truth
What am I supposed to do
Mm
I guess Peter Pan was right
Growing up's a waste of time
So I think I'll fly away
Set a course for brighter days
Find the second star, I'm soaring
Then straight on to the morning
I know that I'll be fine
'Cause I know Peter Pan was right
Days feel like a blur now
Still feel eighteen but I'm burnt out
So I daydream of what I could be
If I turned back time
To a storyline
Where my mom read me a tale where
A couple kids, one girl and a sailor
Met a boy in green
I thought it'd be me
But I guess that dream
Wasn't meant to be like
Ooh
Fairy tales are not the truth
What am I supposed to do
Mm
I guess Peter Pan was right
Growing up's a waste of time
So I think I'll fly away
Set a course for brighter days
Find the second star, I'm soaring
Then straight on to the morning
I know that I'll be fine
'Cause I know Peter Pan was right
And I don't care
If I never land
'Cause the distant sky's
Always better than
My life right now
And the place I am
So for one last time
I guess Peter Pan
I guess Peter Pan was right
Growing up's a waste of time
So I think I'll fly away
Set a course for brighter days
Find the second star, I'm soaring
Then straight on to the morning
I know that I'll be fine
'Cause I know Peter Pan was right
