Alice looked in the mirror and saw a rabbit
Her *****, lit with curiosity, followed him down
But Alice never left
She was just a talking animal, like the rest
She killed her monkey, lost her graces
And now she rules on the other side of the galaxy
We wear her tattoos by age 10
And we sure do love Alice in the underground
The world interprets her story with wonder-
A prevailed analysis of power
But where is the truth?
Liberation has its price
Falling off the wings of an angel
And seeing God on the way down
How do you sleep at night?
I bet your dreams erase the feeling
Of feathers on a wing
And behind closed doors
They’re making deals with the universe
Maybe that’s why I’m never ok
When everyone else is smiling
She wears suede as she swallows my star
Never thought she would take it that far
Guess I’m bound for underwater things
