In “Lost Boy,” Ruth B taps into the world of Peter Pan.

Neverland is the imaginary utopia the speaker uses to escape his harsh reality. The overarching theme of the song is that the speaker doesn't have a place to call 'home,' as evidenced by "no place to call home," "the town that never loved me," and "You (Neverland) are now my home sweet home." This song is about belonging and not belonging, feeling lost and found, escaping reality and diving into one’s imagination.
