Alice in Wonderland
[Verse 1]
When Alice has an answer
It's a common rationality
She measures her phrases
Tipping the scales of reality
But does she know that it's cold
To sing songs to a troubled heart
Though her aim is sincere
She is missing the mark
[Chorus]
She paints her world in yellow and green
Covering over the grey
'Cause life's demands are hard to understand
So Alice stays lost in her Wonderland
[Verse 2]
I said, Alice look around you
People are falling to pieces
Yeah, even the faithful
The ones who still believe in Jesus
But that doesn't mean
They've fallen from grace
But in her landscape
Their heartache is so out of place
[Chorus]
She paints her world in yellow and green
Covering over the grey
'Cause life's demands are hard to understand
So Alice stays lost in her Wonderland
[Bridge]
So can we talk of shoes and of ships?
Can we talk of cabbages and kings?
And of learning to live
With the mystery of things
[Chorus]
She paints her world in yellow and green
Covering over the grey
'Cause life's demands are hard to understand
So Alice stays lost in her Wonderland
So Alice stays lost in her Wonderland
