Alice why did you ever leave Wonderland
To dream and never have to wake
Would that really be so awful
I find it to be a lovely thought
Although, Alice, this is the real world
Here there aren't only dreams…
But nightmares
Often times I think I would rather face my nightmares
Better than living in the real world
The world is a wretched place, really
Where people take until you have nothing left to give
But still they push and pull
Then you find yourself at your breaking point
Oh Alice, I think I've reached mine
Or at least I'm getting close
I wonder what it will be like on the other side
Alice, tell me it's lovely
Please don't let me find it to be terrible
I can't endure any more
Oh Alice, why did you ever leave Wonderland
I suppose you had your reasons
Maybe when I sleep to never wake that is where I will end up
What do you think Alice
Do you think I'll arrive in Wonderland
I promise if I do
I'll say hello to the cheshire cat for you
That is if I can find him
Although, I suppose he will probably find me
I do hope I am not late
I wouldn't want to miss anyone's unbirthday
That would be considered awfully rude
Oh to sleep and never wake
I consider that to be a dream
A fantasy
I mean, Alice, you're only a figment of my imagination
Don't be offended though
I have quite the twisted imagination
One where I sleep and never wake
Oh Alice, Why did you ever leave Wonderland
