about

The hero is more convinced his death was a dream and looks reflecting upon the self, decides the truth for themselves.

lyrics

You’ll think too much as you fall down
The latitude you’re at won’t matter now
You see it all as you fall down
Your curiosity will latch on your tongue
You’ll throw a fit, as you grow tall
Just be careful to not lose yourself
Your eyes will drip on down
In the pool of tears you’ll nearly drown

I know its not real
And its all a dream
I cant help but feel
There’s something there I just cant see

When the cat takes off his masquerade
The queen wont put a razor behind what she says
You’ll find it odd, as you play croquet
That only she can break the rules and not be put to shame
You say you don’t want to play that game
But I’m the only one who’s dealing their cards straight
Weill you or will you not take a walk with me
The carpenter and walrus aren’t here for tea

I know it’s not real
And it’s all a dream
I can’t help but feel
There’s something there that was meant for me

Alice. I’ll come to find you.
I’ll step down the rabbit hole, but there will be nothing there at all
Alice. I’ll come to find you.
In the garden of the queen, where nothing is as it seems
Alice. I’ll come to find you
I’ll put my heart against the mirror, but I’ll find nothing there
No, I’ll find nothing there at all
