Alice's Requiem
Are You Alice?
T
I run and run-searching, searching
Trying to find my way home
The white rabbit, he flees
The cat, he dances and laughs
Asking for my name
I run and run-searching, searching
"Don't turn around; don't look aback"
The Red Queen, he tips his hat
The Joker, he doesn't laugh
I don't know my own name
I run and run-searching, searching
Escaping my past to make a new future
The Duchess she smiles at me
Tears streaming down her face
As she asks me for my name
I run and run-searching, searching
Chasing the fragments of a dream
The Dark Duke he holds me tight
The Mad Hatter tells a lie
And from the black I hear a name
"Alice, can you hear me?
Alice, are you sleeping,
There under the old oak tree?
Wake up sleepy head, I'm still reading;
Teacher will be here soon,
Wake up and come play with me."
"There is nothing for you to fear."
