lyrics

EULOGY FOR THE WHITE RABBIT
Don't wait up for me, I might not make it back in time, it's not just tonight I've been down here looking for a sign; and right now things are looking up but I've learned to keep my eyes both shut
Trip and fall on fantasy I wound up here

I'll fall down this hole
On bloody hands through wonderland I crawl,
Imagining the friends I've never known
And things have changed here
It's not the same, dear
Since you were here
You lit the fire

When you grow up in this place, they'll give you nothing and want something great
Now I won't try to change the world 'cause I can't even change myself

But these demons don't agree: painting roses red with blood from my eyes, locked inside my cage – these bars won't bend, the future's blind, and I figured out the hangman's knot
"You'll burn in hell" is what they taught but this place could use some cleansing and the flame's already lit

I'll fall down this hole
On bloody hands through wonderland I crawl,
Imagining the friends I've never known
And things have changed here
It's not the same, dear
Since you were here
You lit the fire

Drink the bottle (the label says your size will alter, watch your self-esteem get smaller)
Is living so hard? (Everyone's lives taunting me, they make it seem so damn easy)
The pills you swallow, (are ten times worse, I'm telling you, than all the shit you've been through)
So give me one shot, (morphine to make me dream or novocain to dull the pain)
Can medicine still save my soul, when all that's left is a black hole?
(pull me up by my IV) Is it worth it if the end justifies the means?

I've fallen down this rabbit-hole again, but even here I'm left to fend for myself

I'll crawl out of this hole
On hands and knees at last I see the sun...
And it's time to fix the problems I've been dealt
And things have changed here
It's not the same, dear
Since you were here
We put out the fire
