(Deep) Inspirations behind Ha:tfelt/Yeeun's PETER PAN and NOTHING LASTS FOREVER

[bingo]

 

Nothing Lasts Forever:

 

Written about a WonderFul (WG fan) named Dawoon who passed way last year. According to the mother, her child was all about studying and Wonder Girls. Wonder Girls visited the fan at the hospital and Yeeun even went the second time with her family. With two months of living, the fan asked if WG were going to release a new album or even a concert. When the fan passed away, Yeeun spent a month in grief and writing NLF. 

She also only uses the guide version in the album to retain the feelings she felt (i.e., not re-recorded).

 

Edit: (cr. qoxie)

The closing track 'Nothing Lasts Forever' was written by Yeeun for a deceased WG fan. Yeeun was teary-eyed as she mentioned this. "She was a fan whom we [WG] were acquainted with the whole time. She came to our shows & fansigns. Her academic results were very good, she had always topped her school cohort until early last year. Nice personality, very cheerful. She fell ill with a brain tumor & died during the day of the college entrance exams. We [WG] had gone to the hospital to see her, but there was nothing else we could do. The news was a shock; there was no chance for a final farewell. It was my first encounter with a younger friend who passed away. She hadn't even reached adult age before she died. It was devastating. I was in grief for about a month, then wrote this song. Whenever I listen to the tune, my heart always aches."

 

 

 

 

Lyrics

 

 

The sadder you were, the brighter you got
The more in pain, the more you laughed
Beautiful

You were curious about so many things
You had so much you wanted to do
So child-like

 

Words I didn’t say to you back then
Words I couldn’t say to you back then

Nothing lasts forever
Nothing lasts forever
Everything will disappear some day
As if it was never there

But I’m here to remember
You’ll always be remembered
I’ll remember you and me and this winter

Letting go of you, in the photo you look better than anyone else
It feels a little unfamiliar
Promises that weren’t kept remain deep inside my heart
It tortures me

If only I sang for you back then
If only I sang this song for you back then

You asked why it was you
Sometimes you resented God
Have you found the reason why
Will you tell me as well?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Peter Pan:

Last April, she had thoughts about disappearing from this world because she was facing so many hardships and dealing with the cruel reality. She didn't understand why Wendy chose to return to real life, because if she was Wendy, if she had it her way, she would stay in Neverland forever.

 

Lyrics:

 

 

A long time ago, you and I
We had nothing to fear
We talked about stories that were unbelievable
As you held my hand and flew far away

Into the starlight of the thick sky

 

Peter Pan, take me to neverland
To a place where you won’t be a grown-up
To a place where the laughter never stops
Peter Pan, let me fly away with you
To a place where you can always fly
To a place where you can dream forever
Let me go

Wendy, the little girl dreamer
Her shadow grows longer as time goes by
An unknown fear
You can’t ever fly again, it stays on my mind

Will you remember me?

Peter Pan, take me to neverland
To a place where you won’t be a grown-up
To a place where the laughter never stops
Let me go

To a place where you can always fly
To a place where you can dream forever
To that place, let me go

Trans of other songs if y'all missed it:

Truth

 

 

 

Now start saying what you wanted to say
Tell me the thing you really wanted me to hear

Just once, to me
Just once

I need truth, I need truth
Just once
I need truth
Just once

 

This is the last time for all this craziness
This is your last chance for me to listen to you till the end

You still don’t know?
I saw your rock bottom

All the pieces you try to put together with what I know
Throw it all away
The empty shells of lies, the accustomed tears
Swallow it up
What I want to hear is

Just once
Please

 

Bond

 

You bad boy, a notorious heart breaker
I don’t wanna admit it but
I’m crazy for you, so crazy for you
C-C-Crazy for you
I’ve heard about your killing manual
I knew of it but I can’t escape
You’re too beautiful to be a lie

 

Mr. Bond 0 0 7

I want you, my heaven
Your eyes make my breath stop
It’s ok if you use me, come kiss me

Mr. Bond 0 0 7

You cute little devil
Your fingers play with me
Oh oh oh boy, do-o-o-n’t, stop it bond

Call me baby honey my darling
Just for today, forget about your duty
You can’t go like this
Come sit here, sh, stop talking
Take off your heavy suit, give me your hidden gun
I can’t take it anymore

Girls keep wanting my gun these days
What are you gonna do with it?
Answer me when I ask you, you’re about to die with pleasure
God damn, I’m warning you
If I shoot my gun at someone
Whoever it is, she needs to be pretty enough to die
She needs to move like she’s bad
Ok u a bad girl huh , u got that nasty huh
U got that handcuffs, but that’s not my taste
Anyway, get ready for tonight, I’ve prepared a Russian Roulette for you
Just one shot is enough, got one shot to kill

 

and Wherever Together for WG

 

As if we’ve known each other since a long time ago
As if it was all decided from the beginning

You are me
I am you

 

We can go wherever together
We can go wherever together

Take my hand I will take you
To the end of the rainbow
Don’t be scared let me hold you now
Let’s fly

I can’t explain this familiar yet strange feeling
There’s nothing to explain
I know you feel the way I feel

 

Iron Girl

 

Just because I took a step back, you think I lost
Just because you can’t see me, you say it’s over
A crisis becomes a chance, scars become armor
No one can break it, I guard my hear, do you see that?
Even if I’m lost in the maze called Despair
I trust myself in the split road called Chance
I need to stand up, what doesn’t kill me makes me stronger
I’m an expert on turning the tables and winning

 

Strong arms like iron, legs like steel
I, I, I’m Iron girl
Try to poke me, try to do whatever you want
I, I, I’m iron girl

People say that I’m only about the outer layer
But now you see me naked on the ground
People say that I’m a coward
But now you see me naked on the ground

I am I, I, Iron girl
I, I, Iron girl
I’ll be alive will survive, the main character never dies
I, I, I’m iron girl

Even if I’m balled up and quiet, I’m still the main character
I’m in the process of growing, you can’t kill my passion
Understand that I’m not afraid at all
In the end, they all change and leave but I will stay
Not just the outer layer but the inner substance, a butterfly inside a cocoon
I’ll prove it, if I’m ready, the opportunity will come
My music is more important than money or fame
I’m done? Says who? This music is killer

I ran into the fire, my body was burning red
But I, I, I only got stronger
I learned how to face the pressing fear and fight against it
I, I, I only got wiser

Someone told me that I’m too plain
But now you see me flying without wings
Someone told me that it’s over for me
But now you see me standing on the ash

The world sees what they want to see
But I’m more than just what you see
What you see is just the half of me
Iron girl, is what’s inside here

Maybe I’m not gold, not even a shining silver
But I, I, I’m iron girl

It was a very nice touch to the song.  Especially after reading the back story.
