lyrics

Alice
Dwight Evan Young

Alice thought she stepped into a dream,
But she fell into a nightmare.
Things are seldom as they seem.

Alice, when you fall asleep it all goes away.
Alice, chase that white rabbit until the break of day, yeah.

Isn’t what you had thought it would be at the start,
But just play your part, cause this chapter is just beginning.

Show a little more grace,
Save a little more face,
Cause you’ll either be dead or escape from this place
In five years time.

Try to see beyond your looking glass.
Try to understand the past is the past.

The prince you found in the garden
Isn’t nearly as charming
When you’re coughing up blood, nearly broken your arm,
He’s mad as a hatter now.

Alice, when you fall asleep it all goes away.
Alice, chase that white rabbit until the break of day, yeah.

[You don’t know but you’ve been living life within a dream]
[Alice thought she stepped into a dream,
But she fell into a nightmare.
Things are seldom as they seem.]
[Alice, chase that white rabbit until the break of day.]

Run, rabbit run, forget that sun,
Never let him find you again
Or he’ll paint those roses red,
And leave you for dead.
You’re falling down and down.
Tell me how you’re gonna catch yourself.
Everything has an end
If you stop the pretend.

So try, try and fight, resist that night
And all your memories of the pain.
All those times you screamed in vain,
You never complained,
Cause in the dark of night
You were just waiting till the time was right.
Everything has an end
Stop the pretend.

Take the knife.
Watch him cry.
Take his life.
Watch him die.

Slit his throat,
Let him bleed
On the sheets
He raped your dreams.

The man behind the Cheshire grin
Is cold the blade is covered in sin.
But in the wake of damning demise
You find you’ve never felt so alive…

Alice, when you fall asleep it all goes away.
Alice, chase that white rabbit until the break of day, yeah.
Alice, when you fall asleep it all goes away.
Alice, chase that white rabbit until the break of day.

And she lived happily ever after…
