Thank you Sam for posting the right lyrics :)
Just went into the project real quick and corrected them, so I won't look at the wrong lyrics all the time.

Warning: bad audio quality
This was recorded while he was opening for Plested in Cologne.

LYRICS

"When I was a boy,
I had a book in my eye.
A good head on my shoulders,
But a thorn in my side.
I had it all figured out until I turned sixteen.

I gathered my thoughts,
And I walked out the door.
I said bye to my mother,
I didn't need her anymore.
I was full of dreams and sweet ketamine when I left.

I had highs,
I had lows,
I didn't try anymore.
I grew out my hair,
And I lied to them all.
I lived for the ups,
But I'd die for the lows,
Singing I never wanna grow old.

Hello old friend,
It's good to see you again,
It's been so long since we first met.
I'd love to say that things haven't changed,
But you've moved on,
And I'm still lost in Neverland.
But I'm no Peter Pan.

Well now I'm a poet,
With a pen in my hand.
Just another lost boy,
Trying hard to understand,
Why the kid in the mirror's got a beard and a fear of his watch.

I tried asking the stars,
How they lived in the dark.
They told me it's easy when you know who you are.
Well how do you do,
I'm the boy that you thought you once knew.

I have highs,
I have lows,
I miss flying back home.
I love all my friends,
But I hate when they go.

I tried growing up,
But it just wouldn't work.
Singing I never wanna grow old.

Hello old friend,
It's good to see you again,
It's been so long since we first met.
I'd love to say that things haven't changed,
But you've moved on,

Hello old friend,
It's good to see you again,
It's been so long since we first met.
I'd love to say that things haven't changed,
But you've moved on,
And I'm still lost in Neverland.
But I'm no Peter Pan.

Lost in Neverland,
But I'm no Peter Pan."
