Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We drew blueprints on your bedroom wall,
Promised stars in a mason jar—
You said forever, but forever fell short,
Now I’m sweeping up the glass of the dreams I bought.
[Pre-Chorus]
You were my architect, I was your clay,
But you left the structure done halfway…
Now the roof’s caved in, and the paint’s all cracked,
And ‘never’s the only thing you ever gave back.
[Chorus]
NEVER IS A LONG TIME WHEN FOREVER’S JUST A LIE!
You lit a match to the castle we designed,
Now I’m choking on the smoke of what we left behind.
I built a universe in your heartbeat’s rhyme—
But never is a long time… Never is a long time.
[Verse 2]
You carved your name in my ribcage deep,
Now it’s just graffiti on a sinking fleet.
I’m drafting apologies I’ll never send,
‘Cause ‘sorry’ won’t glue the pieces back again.
[Pre-Chorus]
You swore we’d outlast the tides, the rust,
But you left me stranded in the dust…
Now I’m mapping exits in this ghost-town heart,
Where ‘never’ was the finish line from the start.
[Chorus]
NEVER IS A LONG TIME WHEN FOREVER’S JUST A LIE!
You lit a match to the castle we designed,
Now I’m choking on the smoke of what we left behind.
I built a universe in your heartbeat’s rhyme—
But never is a long time… Never is a long time.
[Verse 3]
I salvaged bricks from the ash and lies,
Rewired the circuits in my satellite eyes.
Your ‘what-ifs’ echo, but I’m changing the tune—
This self-made kingdom’s got no room for you.
I’m the wrecking ball you underestimated,
A storm in the shape of the girl you created.
So keep your ‘never’—it’s a relic, a shrine…
I’m building a future where your name’s crossed out in the lights.
[Bridge]
Was I a fool to trust the blueprints in your eyes?
To think we’d climb a heaven we could never find?
But I’ll burn the wreckage, let the flames rise high—
Your ‘never’ is a funeral pyre…
AND I’M WALKING OUT ALIVE!
[Outro]
Never is a long time… (Long time!)
I’ll rewrite the cosmos with my own damn rhymes.
Never is a long time… (Long time!)
Your ‘forever’ drowned—but I’ll make it sublime!
I’m walking out alive
ALIVE!!!!!!
Oh- yeaaaaah
Never…..
Is a long time!!!!!!!!
Ooooooo-yeaaaaah
We drew blueprints on your bedroom wall,
