In "Forever Endeavor," Kings of Leon chase through a bad dream toward a dead-end road, unsure if anything is even real. The chorus answers that fear with a stubborn promise to weather together, a bond that outlasts the confusion. Small joys, like spraying kids with a hose, offer a brief escape from being boxed in or labeled. The repeated image of a lonely moonbeam suggests isolation, yet the song insists that enduring side by side is the only way through.
Forever Endeavor Lyrics by Kings of Leon
Running in a bad dream
‘Bout as hard as I can go
I don’t know where I’m going
Starin’ down a dead-end road
Latest is it’s all a lie
We aren’t even real
It’s a lonely night for a moonbeam
You know the drill
Forever endeavor
We weather together
Forever endeavor
We weather together
Spray the kids with the hose
Little things light them up
They’re lost in the moment
Oh, to be out of touch
Label me what you will
You can put me in a box
I’ll be layin’ in the clovers
While you’re breakin’ rocks
Forever endeavor
We weather together
Forever endeavor
We weather together
Forever, oh, endeavor
We weather together
Forever endeavor
We weather together forever
One is not the other
Angels have wings
Made your bread and butter
Aiming to please
Forever endeavor
We weather together
Forever endeavor
We weather together
Forever, oh, endeavor
We weather together
Forever endeavor
We weather together forever
I don’t know where I’m going
Starin’ down a dead-end road
Latest is it’s all a lie
You could put me in a box
It’s a lonely night for a moonbeam
