about

“Neverland” is a lot more upbeat than my previous releases and a transition in my sound that included "Silk Dress" . It has massive pop-punk vibes flowing through, which was music that inspired me as a young kid. I took some inspiration from the classic book, "Where The Wild Things Are", in the sense of having a place to go if the world seems too much at times.
“Neverland” is a place in my mind which is an oasis and retreat from the daily challenges of life, particularly the current world turmoil and instability. The song is for all those marginalised people out there, that don't quite fit in and get hassled in their day to day lives. Hence the line in the song "Planet Earth is not my friend". not a great place at times with some people not being particularly nice to others. "Neverland" is dedicated to all those marginalised creative & non creative cool people out there who get a hard time most days. So for all you “outcasts” out there this this song is for you!

lyrics

I found myself a secret hiding place where the wild things are
And although this may, it may feel very strange I still call it home
It's a place where I can be myself
Free from everybody else (and their opinions)
So go and say it like you mean it
Go on and say it with your chest
Planet Earth is not my friend
So you can find me in Neverland
Growing up, school it really sucked it was such a drag
Every day, it always felt the same, nothing ever changed
I never was athletic, was far from academic
I wish I was though, it's such a shame
All the kids they used to pick on me
Maybe they were right coz I was such a dweeb
So go and say it like you mean it
Go on and say it with your chest
Planet Earth is not my friend
So you can find me in Neverland
I never really found a place where Everything felt right everything was calm and
I never really found a place where I belong
But today I guess I found a way
Planet earth’s a funny place
It’s not for everyone
If you're an outcast just like me
Then this is your new home and this is your anthem
So go and say it like you mean it
Go on and say it with your chest
Planet Earth is not my friend
So you can find me in Neverland
you can find me in Neverland
You can find me in Neverland
You can find me in Neverland
