[Intro, spoken] Welcome to Wonderland Come in, have no fear You’re one of us now We’re all mad here! [Verse One] A lost girl inside a maze She asks for help but receives riddles, receives threats Lost for days, remains unfazed I play your game and either way I lose my head Two truths and one lie, the time flies as madness descends What begins and what ends Who am I, who are you? What’s a lie, what is true? How do you find a way out When what’s left appears right and what’s right’s always wrong? Clinging to sanity or embrace the fantasy? [Pre-Chorus] You seem to walk for miles Met with feline smiles As grins begin to turn into scowls (You’re one of us now!) [Chorus] Crimson red hearts, stone from the start Betcha they’re beating now Hatters and cards, yeah I’ll tear them apart Cause the fire needs feeding now Send kind regards, drop the facade Everyone hear my vow I’ll embrace this Wonderland crown I only paint in red now Wailing and tears, sweet music I hear Sweat beading on your brow Now, would you deny me my right to reply? You see, I’m not done speaking, so let’s see you bow No way out in sight, so try as I might I’m giving up, oh I’ll embrace this Wonderland crown I only paint in red now [Verse Two] Looking in the looking glass (I trip, I fall, from big to small I just want home, it’s not my fault!) Chasing time it moves so fast (You sip, you smile, stay for a while Put down your mind and join the wild) [Pre-Chorus] My threads of thought are fading Impulsive webs invading Wonderland words coming out of my mouth (You’re one of us now!) [Chorus] Crimson red hearts, stone from the start Betcha they’re beating now Hatters and cards, yeah I’ll tear them apart Cause the fire needs feeding now Send kind regards, drop the facade Everyone hear my vow I’ll embrace this Wonderland crown I only paint in red now Wailing and tears, sweet music I hear Sweat beading on your brow Now, would you deny me my right to reply? You see, I’m not done speaking, so let’s see you bow No way out in sight, so try as I might I’m giving up, oh I’ll embrace this Wonderland crown I only paint in red now [Bridge] I’ll speak in rhyme, if riddles you seek I’ll give you riddles, recite them for free Are you scared of me? Are you scared of me? The clock’s run out, too late to wake up You’re locked under this nightmare’s thumb Begging, you hide and run What have I become? (Alice, sweetheart, it’s time for tea! Alice? Alice? Alice!) [Chorus] Crimson red hearts, stone from the start (John, come quickly!) Betcha they’re beating now (What is it?) (I don’t know what’s wrong with her!) Can someone please show me the way out? (Hatters and cards, yeah I’ll tear them apart Cause the fire needs feeding now) I’m not too sure who I am or how (Send kind regards, drop the facade Everyone hear my vow) I’ll embrace this Wonderland crown I’m part of Wonderland now! (I only paint in red now) Chasing down sanity til I drop (Wailing and tears, sweet music I hear Sweat beading on your brow) Mind runs away and it just won’t stop (Now, would you deny me my right to reply? You see, I’m not done speaking, so let’s see you bow) Please I am begging you just let me out! (No way out in sight, so try as I might I’m giving up, oh I’ll embrace this Wonderland crown) I only paint in red now.
