[Intro]
Land of forever
Thought we were set
Time did us clever
Left me in debt (yeah)
[Chorus]
In the land of forever, where we swore we’d stay
Now I’m counting every second that you threw away
Feel the pain hit the edges of that first kiss
I keep asking myself, can it be real like this? (like this)
In the land of forever, we got lost in the past
Tried to hold on to a moment that was never built to last
All this hurt on the border where our mouths first met
Can this really be love, or a lie we won’t forget?
[Verse 1]
We were kids on a mattress, floor for a frame
Laughing over nothing, now we fighting over blame
You said “always,” drew a heart on my wrist
Now it’s faded like the feeling when we used to exist
Old hood, same bench, I still see us there
Your head on my shoulder, cold wind in your hair
Now it’s late-night texts I erase, then rewrite
“Are you happy?” on my screen, can’t hit send, that’s my pride
[Chorus]
In the land of forever, where we swore we’d stay
Now I’m counting every second that you threw away
Feel the pain hit the edges of that first kiss
I keep asking myself, can it be real like this? (like this)
In the land of forever, we got lost in the past
Tried to hold on to a moment that was never built to last
All this hurt on the border where our mouths first met
Can this really be love, or a lie we won’t forget?
[Verse 2]
Took pics in the mirror, matching shoes, same pose
Now it’s just me in the frame, in your hoodie, in your clothes
Mom asking ’bout you, I just say you doing fine
She don’t know I still chase you through the corners of my mind
You moved out, new city, new friends, new plans
I’m stuck scrolling through the memories, glued to your hands
If forever had a map, we went off-track slow
Kept driving through the warnings, now we stranded in the snow
[Chorus]
In the land of forever, where we swore we’d stay
Now I’m counting every second that you threw away
Feel the pain hit the edges of that first kiss
I keep asking myself, can it be real like this? (like this)
In the land of forever, we got lost in the past
Tried to hold on to a moment that was never built to last
All this hurt on the border where our mouths first met
Can this really be love, or a lie we won’t forget?
