Dwight Evan Young - Alice Lyrics

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...
