Alice Redux
My mind is a cage
And my eyes are a stage
For fires to dance in a cloudy haze
They burn but they are smothered
So I step into another
day when I say everything is okay
Even if it’s not
And the day ticks by on my analog clock
And my heart twists into a confused knot
And the moon comes up and I’m lost in my thoughts
It’s rough I curl up because I’m not enough
The world is too much
The day is done
The rabbit runs
We’re lost before the night’s begun
We shrink until we’re small
Then we drink until we’re tall
Looking for a straight path until we fall
down the rabbit hole
Fall beyond your head, fall beyond the truth
Fall to a time of innocence and youth
Please remember, please understand
The girl who plays in Wonderland
