Alice
Is this how Alice felt?
Is this how life seemed through the looking glass?
A world reversed of what it should be
Caring turned to disinterest
Loving laughter spun into an unsettling silence of a cold look
Alice how did you survive such a cruel place
Can you tell me its secrets?
Would you guide me out of this nightmare that doesn't seem to end?
We both promised forever
Did I linger to long with the white rabbit?
I ate no mushroom and took no potion
Alice come back through the looking glass
Show me where I went wrong
How can I fix things in a world that makes no sense?
Love and promise brought you through safely
Alice tell me how what saved you has doomed me this night
Did I not bow deeply enough to the Red Queen?
Were my songs not sweet enough to charm the dragons?
Mister Mad Hatter no I do not want any tea
Alice where are you!
Come back and show me the way through the rabbit's hole to return to where I belong
How could a few words unthinkingly spoken bring about this change?
Mister Caterpillar please stop smoking your hookalah
Each wispy puff of its shimmering smoke shows me what could have been
Broken dreams seem to pave the walkways
Whispering of what I should have said and done
Alice is this how you felt?
Won't you come back to this mad world and show me the way home
I have to go back
I've been away to long
I've forgotten how to smile and laugh
Music's melody no longer plays in my head within this strange place
Alice please tell me this is nothing more then a nightmare I will soon wake from
Tell me when I open my eyes once more I will be in his arms where I belong
Is this how you felt Alice?
Spinning through a world of madness where sanity should reign
Make it stop
Undo the careless words and fears that brought them to sound
Alice can I turn back time and go home?
I promise this time I will be aware
This time I will do as I should and not let fear and madness stop me
Is this how you felt Alice?
Lost in a world of madness that makes no sense at every turn
I know I shouldn't have run Alice
So now I walk and yet the distance remains the same
Tell me Alice how can I go back to where I was?
Back when life and love made sense without the cold distance of hurt
Is this how you felt Alice?
Lost and trapped with no way out
No chance to set right what went wrong
If this is how you felt Alice come back and show me how to make it right
Tell me how to fix what was broken
I can not stand another day in this confusing place
Empty of love
Trapped within a world of pain and tears
Broken hearted and once more alone
Is this how you felt Alice
Tell me Alice how did you get home?
