Goodbye Alice In Wonderland |
| Verse 1: |
| It’s four in the afternoon |
| I’m on a flight leaving L.A. |
| Trying to think about my life |
| My youth scattered along the highway |
| Hotel rooms and headlines |
| I’ve made a living with a song |
| Just a guitar as my companion |
| Wanting desperately to belong |
| Fame is filled with spoiled children |
| They grow fat on fantasy |
| I guess that’s why I’m leaving |
| I crave reality |
| Chorus 1: |
| So goodbye Alice in Wonderland |
| Goodbye yellow brick road |
| There is a difference between dreaming and pretending |
| I did not find paradise |
| It was only a reflection of my lonely mind searching |
| For what was missing in my life |
| Verse 2: |
| I’m embarassed to say the rest is a rock and roll cliche |
| I hit the bottom when I reached the top |
| I never knew it was you who was breaking my heart |
| I thought you had to love me You did not |
| Yes a heart can hallucinate |
| If it’s completely starved for love |
| Can even make monsters seem like |
| Angels from above |
| You forged my love like a weapon |
| And turned it against me like a knife |
| You broke my last heartstring |
| But you opened up my eyes |
| Chorus 2: |
| So goodbye Alice in Wonderland |
| Goodbye yellow brick road |
| There is a difference between dreaming and pretending |
| That was not love in your eyes |
| It was only a reflection of my lonely mind wanting |
| what was missing in my life |
| Bridge: |
| Dreaming is a good thing cause it brings new things to life |
| Pretending is an ending that perpetuates a lie |
| Forgetting what you are |
| Seeing for what you’ve been told |
| And growing up is not the absence of dreaming |
| It’s being able to understand the difference between the ones you can hold |
| And the ones that you’ve been sold |
| Verse 3: |
| Well, truth is stranger than fiction |
| And this is my chance to get it right |
| Life is much better without all of your pretty lies |
| Chorus 3: |
| So Goodbye Alice in Wonderland |
| You can keep your yellow brick road |
| Cause there is a difference between dreaming and pretending |
| That was not love in your eyes |
| It was only a reflection of my lonely mind wanting |
| It was only a reflection of my lonely mind wishing |
| That you were what was missing from my life |
