The Rabbit Hole

A red cherry in her drink
and red thoughts on her brain
sometimes feel like bullets
sometimes like going insane
another round to be merry
or maybe drown out the red
with some blue to sleep on
some relief for her head

She goes down the rabbit hole
down, down, the rabbit hole
trying to find something to hold
slipping down the rabbit hole

At the bar she asks for "drink me"
because her skin feels tight
bartender knows her well by now
and tells her not tonight
but call him in a week or so
when his girl is gone and he's alone
she says, "misery needs company
and nobody's miserable as me
so I'll see you in a week"

She goes down the rabbit hole
down, down, the rabbit hole
trying to find something to hold
slipping down the rabbit hole

Another night, no success
lose the day, get undressed
look at what happened to Alice
look at what happened
she lost wonderland
it slipped through her hands
and she slipped down

down, down down

She goes down the rabbit hole
down, down, the rabbit hole
trying to find something to hold
slipping down the rabbit hole
