Lyrics Alice (1993) - The Sisters of Mercy

Alice (1993)

Alice pressed against the wall So she can see the door
In case the laughing strangers crawl and Crush the petals on the floor
Alice in her party dress She thanks you kindly So serene
She needs you like she needs her tranqs To tell her that the world is clean
To promise her a definition Tell her where the rain will fall
Tell her where the sun shines bright And tell her she can have it all
Today Today
Pass the crystal spread the Tarot In illusion comfort lies
The safest way the straight and narrow No confusion no surprise
Alice in her party dressed to kill She thanks you turns away
She needs you like she needs needs her pills
To tell her that the world’s okay To promise her a definition
Tell her where the rain will fall Tell her where the sun shines bright
And tell her she can have it all
Today
Today
Alice
Don’t give it away
