In my mind I have fallen quite far quite further than my mind once thought So like Alice into                              the                                    rabbit                                                hole                                                        I go Chasing what was once my shadow But now it seems to have become my ghost And how it haunts me these days Laughing as it taunts me in endless shame Yet hopelessly I                             chase                                       it                                          down                                                     further Not becoming any closer Just further away Always just close enough But to far away from What Matters?

Down the Rabbit Hole
In my mind I have fallen quite far quite further than my mind once thought So like Alice into                              the                                    rabbit                                                hole                                                        I go Chasing what was once my shadow But now it seems to have become my ghost And how it haunts me these days Laughing as it taunts me in endless shame Yet hopelessly I                             chase                                       it                                          down                                                     further Not becoming any closer Just further away Always just close enough But to far away from What Matters?
Sometimes we chase after the things we want and often find ourselves the furthest from what actually matters.
