"Her Name Is Alice"

Almost Alice

[[Spoken:]]

If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't.

(singing)

I invite you to a world

Where there is no such thing as time

And every creature lends themselves

To change your state of mind

And the girl that chased the rabbit

Drank the wine and took the pill

Has locked herself in limbo

To see how it truly feels

To stand outside your virtue

No one can really hurt you

Or so they say

CHORUS::

Her name is Alice

(Alice)

She crawls into the window

Through shapes and shadows

And even though she's dreaming

She knows

Sometimes curiosity can kill the soul

But leave behind the pain

And every ounce of innocence

Is left inside the frame

And through the looking glass

We see she's painfully returned

But now off with her head

I fear is everyone's concern

You see there's no real ending

It's only the beginning

Come out and play

CHORUS::

She's unlocked the meaning

For you

This kingdom

Good riddance

Good freedom

And innocence

CHORUS::

She's unlocked the meaning

("Midnight's highlights

Marching into the fight")

("Drink me

Shrink me

Fill me to sink me")

("Midnight's highlights

Marching into the fight")

("Drink me

Shrink me

Fill me to sink me")

She's unlocked the meaning

For you

[[Spoken:]]

And contrariwise, what it is it wouldn't be. And what it wouldn't be, it would. You see?
