a single shining tear
somehow finds a way out
from behind a wall of stubborn will
from behind another cigarette
pretending it’s ended
long enough to start it again
(pre-chorus)
you keep telling me what you feel
when i ask you what is real
you’re running
you’re running from the truth
alice wishlist...
so who you saving now?
where’s your white horse?
or does it only ride for you in wonderland?
far away from here and
the heartbreaks,
the mistakes...
baby, you’re the one that need’s the saving.
(pre-chorus)
(chorus)
alice... oh, alice
how much longer are you gonna hide your heart?
you keep telling me what you feel
when i ask you what is real.
you’re runnin’,
you’re runnin’ from the truth
c’mon and sing your sad songs, baby
cry your eyes out now -
whatever it takes
to get your heart to a place
where it’s not just gonna break again.
alice wishlist... does your wonderland exist?
how much longer are you gonna hide your heart?
alice... oh, alice
how much longer are you gonna hide your heart?It makes me lonely
It makes me very lonely
When I see you here, waitin' on
It makes me tired, he makes me very tired
And inside of me, lingers on
But you have a heart
Don't believe it, and you will find it
Waitin' on
Everything I said, oh, well I meant it
And inside my head, holdin' on
'Cos if I died tonight
Would you hold my hand, no
Would you understand
And if I lived in spite
Would you still be here, no
Would you disappear
Surely must be you
But I don't make you lonely
I'll get over you
But I don't make you lonely
