Alice in Wonderful (collaboration between Karina Norris-Veirs and Star Gazer)
Oops! There I go
Chasing that **** white rabbit
Wouldn't you know it
I tripped and fell down his hole
Arms flailing trying to grasp a hold
Passing by roots and sediment
Seeing places of before
Finally landing in a land unknown
feels like Alice in wonderland...
changed to
Alice in Wonderful.....
The bright flashing lights
Tall skyscrapers touched
the tips of clouds
As automobiles whirred past.
No this was no wonderland
This was wonderful
As I drew breath
On a contaminated scent.
Things have been flipped
What was up now down
What once was sweet
Turned sour on the tongue
I cannot trust a thing
Here my eyes are truly deceived
Right is wrong
Wrong is right
To trust my own heart
That I don't know
This wonderful land
Beats to a different type of band
Left has become right
Every turn taken
Is another chance
To become lost.
My heart sings a tune
calming my soul
this wonderful land
cleanses my mind.
I guess I've been
here long enough
To feel a different
Kind of love.
Pulled from the darkest recesses of my mind
My demons silenced
Here in this wonderful
Upside down world
Thank you Star Gazer for doing a collaboration with me. This was fun!
