Help me, I can't find my way home No direction seems right, all I hear are echoes I fell into a hole and now I'll never redeem my soul Help me, I can't find my way home Help me, I can't find my way Now I can't make sense of anything I know I'm lost in Wonderland and I don't believe they understand I can't get through to anyone And they've got no room for who I am I know I'm lost in Wonderland Cause I can't make sense of anything I know I'm lost, I know, I know I know I'm lost, I know, I know, I know Help me, I can't find my way home Can't tell day from moon light Living things from shadows I wandered through a room Offered to shrivel or to bloom Help me, I can't find my way home Help me, I can't find my way Now I can't make sense of anything I know I'm lost in Wonderland and I don't believe they understand I can't get through to anyone And they've got no room for who I am I know I'm lost in Wonderland Cause I can't make sense of anything I know I'm lost, I know, I know I know I'm lost, I know, I know

Heads are rolling, but the blood's still flowing Heads are rolling, but the blood's still flowing I'm still shrinking, I'm still growing Roses falling in every direction, but I'm nobody's fool The queen has no heart The queen has no heart But her blood's still flowing Yet the blood still flows I'm still shrinking, I'm still growing I'm still shrinking, I'm still growing No heart The Queen has no heart But her blood's still flowing Yet the blood still flows

Waiting for whatever, and I have no doubt I'm gonna wait forever until it comes around Past controls the future, I'm living in the past My better days surround me inside my looking glass I know you'll show up some day, you're always in my head I don't go searching for you, just wait around instead Waiting forever Waiting for whatever If the world was over, and there was nothing left Whatever never showed up, oh what a horrid theft You cynical trickster, you little punk You knew I'd trade my pleasures for this piece of junk If there's a tomorrow, and all hope's not lost I'll see you around whenever our paths decide to cross Waiting forever Waiting for whatever Waiting forever Waiting for whatever and it's never gonna come So why are you waiting there? It's never gonna come Why are you waiting there, it's never gonna come So why are you waiting there? It's never gonna come

In my youth said his father I took to the law and argued each case with my wife and the muscular strength which it gave to my jaw has lasted the rest of my life "Come back," the caterpillar called after her "I have something important to say" She felt there was no time to be lost she was shrinking rapidly So she set to work at once to eat some of the other bit Her chin was pressed so closely against her foot She was hardly able to open her mouth But she did it, at last and managed to swallow a morsel of the other bit "I'm not particular as to size" Alice hastily replied "Only one doesn't like changing so often, you know?" "I don't know" said the caterpillar Alice said nothing She had never been so much contradicted in her life before and she felt that she was losing her temper "I wish that creatures weren't so easily offended" "You'll get used to it in time" said the caterpillar and it put the hookah in it's mouth and started smoking again This time Alice waited patiently until it chose to speak again In a minute or two the caterpillar took the hookah out of it's mouth and yawned once or twice and shook itself then got down off the mushroom and crawled away into the grass Merely remarking as it went "One side will make you grow taller, and the other side will make you grow shorter" One side of what? The other side of what? Thought Alice to herself.... Be what you would seem to be Or, if you would like it put more simply Never imagine yourself not to be otherwise than what it might appear to others that what you might have been or would be blah blah blah .

All the noise slowly falls silent And comes back again as violins When I see you All my troubles and countless failures Well, they disappear into the void When I see you I could see things go different for me If you let me know you'll be my girl When I see you Come around, I need you near Will you even know that it was me? When I see you Oh my lucky stars, I don't count them anymore I just count on you to make it true When I see you When I see you When I see you

Now that I've cleared my mind of blue I remember you, you're Alice in Wonderland Battling your ancient psyche in the mountains of the moon Trying hard to understand The blue moon Now that I've cleared my eyes of green I have finally seen the illusion I inhabit Little did you know behind the screen There lay a many things, you wouldn't know that they were there Yeah, yeah And so I've rid my heart of pain To believe again in the mysteries of a daydream Anything your heart could spare to ask Beyond the looking glass Alice, listen to the birds sing...

Love 03:30
She is a love believer I have come to see her As a president This is how I feel when I say your name Gathering my feelings is my favorite game After all the company you lent She wonders why I spend my time Pouring lovers wine And staring down the clock This is what I do when I'm hungover I write love songs when I'm sober and I fall in love when I am not Love is the twinkle in your eyes When you come to realize You're Alice in Wonderland This is how I feel when I see your face Something in the world nothing could replace That's the thing I've come to understand

I want to be true to what I believe But Sometimes I move unpredictably Got nothing to do, there's nowhere to be Ice skating through a frozen city I can't talk to you, I cannot sit down My medicine has become outlawed in this town There's nothing for you, there's no one for me Ice skating through a frozen city I woke with a pain and went back to sleep Ice skating through a frozen city A frozen city A frozen city

You watch the sun fall beneath the hill and all the earth is still The glow of day displays it's final will And since the days have turned to lies The time just passes by Day after day You wont open your eyes To watch the sun rise into the green reflection from the sea that paints the sky into infinite Does your sorrow distract you? Are you anxious to hear the bad news of tomorrow? All your days have turned to lies Until recognize You own the moment Open your eyes

I'll miss you when I wake up No more order to up or down And I'll wonder if they're coming back I'll miss them when I'm gone I'll miss you when I wake up When I enter the usual realm And I'll wonder where you've gone I'll miss you when I wake up So she sat on with closed eyes and half believed herself in Wonderland Though she knew she had but to open them again and all would change to dull reality The grass would only be rustling in the wind and the pool rippling to the waving of the reeds The rattling teacups would change and the tinkling sheep bells and the queens shrill cries to the voice of the shepard boy and the sneeze of the baby, the shriek of the gryphon and all the other queer noises would change she knew....
