Life through the Looking Glass

Life through the Looking Glass

What makes you itch?
Tell me your desires.
Stop drinking the elixir
it's not gonna take you any higher.

Follow rabbits down the hole,
you'll meet Alice and the Queen,
and then you'll lose your mind,
a dreamer in a dream.

Ooh, ooh, ooh you're addicted to the wild side,
Ooh, ooh, ooh living life through the looking glass,
Ooh, ooh, ooh you're gonna blow it,
you are on the edge and you know it,
Come Down!

Mad Hatter says I'm out of my mind,
Oh god I'm losing my mind.

Enjoy your trip to Mars,
I hope there is comfort in those stars,
Your stars may shine for you,
but my stars shoot for me.

Tell the Queen I said hello,
I hope Alice steals the show,
She has always been a fighter,
was never meant to die here...

Author's Note

This was wrote in the midst of the wild years.... the epicentre of my lifequake. To all those who have played with fire and got their fingers singed. Some musical salve.
