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

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
