I won't go down that rabbit hole
With you again.
Maybe through a looking glass
Everything looks okay.
And although we might be
Eventually, you have to look away.
And it's nice to take a break
From the mad world up above
But even in that rabbit hole
I have no chance with love.
Is the Queen of Hearts heartbroken too?
Did she play all the wrong cards?
Or maybe she also knows
That the dice was loaded from the start.
Nevertheless you tossed my heart around
Like a ball in croquet
What exactly did you win from that game?
Did you toss your winnings away?
And the flowers are nice to talk to
Beautiful and sweet,
But until they wilt or you're pricked by a thorn
The cycle is not complete.
The butterflies are disappearing,
The birds don't fly so high,
And yet you're living with your head in the clouds,
Your eyes fixated on the sky.
I'll admit, your smile allured me
It was as bright as the moon
But everything is not as it seems.
And, with each other, we fell out of tune.
Our 'love' burned bright, now all that's left is ashes.
Who are you? I don't know you anymore,
I guess the smoke has blinded me.
Who are you? Where's the girl I loved before?
Roses look pretty but you never know
Where the thorn is placed.
People may seem kind but they will leave you
Don't fall into their embrace
Because one day,
Your emotions they'll deface
Sadly these thorns are nothing new
They're just commonplace.
The trail has been erased
We can't go back to the way things were.
We're lost in space
Well in a space where nothing is quite familiar.
There's no shortcuts this time
There's no end to the bad dream
Maybe we'll be alright
When I look through the looking glass again.
Now I float in an ocean of my tears,
The glass of the bottle I'm trapped in,
Doesn't help it only adds to my fears.
I've lost hope this nightmare will ever disappear.
Why can't this nonsense go away?
I'd give myself good advice
But I'd never follow it anyway.
Your world would be a wonderland
Each turn full of wonder
But there's also trauma in your wonderland
And equal to wonder is terror.
The beautiful flowers, the beautiful smiles
All of the good things will live in a ghost town
The exhilarating fall down the rabbit hole...
Sent me spiralling down.
And you'll say it's all in my head
And that we're all mad here.
But you haven't been down
And let me tell you,
It's worse than you could possibly fear.
I won't go down that rabbit hole
Although the flowers were sweet
Although the tea parties were inviting
Although the stories I heard
And the people I met were exciting
It all came to a head
And I was lost in a carnival of terrors
My once 'wonderland'
Was now a mad world too.
I won't go down that rabbit hole
With anyone
Ever
Again.
A.N. I bet you can't count all the Alice in Wonderland references in there.
