Lyrics for Song: Goodbye Alice in Wonderland
Lyrics for Album: Goodbye Alice in Wonderland [2006]
It's four in the afternoon
I'm on a flight leaving LA
Trying to figure out my life
My youth scattered along the highway
Hotel rooms and headlights
I've made a living with the song
Guitar as my companion
Wanting desperately to belong
Fame is filled with spoiled children
And we grow fat on fantasy
I guess that's why I'm leaving
I crave reality
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 wanting
What's been missing in my life
I'm embarrassed to see the rest is rock n roll cliché
I hit the bottom when I reached the top
But I never knew it was you who was breaking my heart
I thought you had to love me
But you did not
Yes the heart can hallucinate
When it's completely starved for love
It can even turn monsters into angels from above
You forged my love just like a weapon
And you turned it against me like a knife
You broke my last heart string
You opened up my eyes
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 searching
For what's been missing in my life
Growing up is not an 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
And dreaming is a good thing 'cause it brings new things to life
But pretending is an ending that perpetuates a lie
Forgetting what you are seeing for what you've been told
Truth is stranger than fiction
And this is my chance to get it right
And life is much better
Without all of those pretty lies
Oh so goodbye Alice in Wonderland
And you can keep your yellow brick road
There is a difference between dreaming and pretending
These are not tears in my eyes
They are only a reflection of my lonely mind finding
They are only a reflection of my lonely mind finding
I found what's missing in my life
