ITS 4 IN THE AFTERNOON
I’M ON A FLIGHT LEAVING LA
TRYIN TO FIGURE OUT MY LIFE
AND MY YOUTH
SCATTERED ALONG THE HIGHWAY
HOTEL ROOMS AND HEADLIGHTS
I’VE MADE A LIVING WITH A SONG
GUITAR AS MY COMPANION
WANTING DESPERATELY TO BELONG
FAME IS FILLED WITH SPOILED CHILDREN
WE GROW FAT ON FANTASY
AND I GUESS THAT’S WHY I’M LEAVING;
I CRAVE REALITY
CHORUS:
SO GOODBYE ALICE INWONDERLAND
GOODBYE YELLOW BRICK ROAD
THERE IS A DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN DREAMING AND PRETENDING
I DID NOT FIND PARADISE
IT WAS ONLY A REFLECTION
OF MY LONELY MIND WANTING
WHATS BEEN MISSING IN MY LIFE

IM EMBARASSED TO SAY
THE REST IS ROCK N ROLL CLICHÉ
I HIT THE BOTTOM
WHEN I REACHED THE TOP
BUT I NEVER KNEW IT WAS YOU
WHO WAS BREAKING MY HEART
I THOUGHT YOU HAD TO LOVE ME
BUT YOU DID NOT
YES A HEART CAN HALLUCENATE
IF IT’S COMPLETELY STARVED FOR LOVE
IT CAN EVEN TURN MONSTERS
 INTO ANGELS FROM ABOVE
YOU FORGED MY LOVE JUST LIKE A WEAPON
YOU TURNED IT AGAINST ME LIKE A KNIFE
AND YOU BROKE MY LAST HEART STRING
BUT YOU OPENED UP MY EYES
(Alice continued)

CHORUS:
SO GOODBYE ALICE INWONDERLAND
GOODBYE YELLOW BRICK ROAD
THERE IS A DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN DREAMING AND PRETENDING
THAT WAS NOT LOVE IN YOUR EYES
IT WAS ONLY A REFLECTION OF MY LONELY MIND SEARCHING
FOR WHATS BEEN MISSING IN MY LIFE
BRIDGE
GROWING UP IS NOT THE ABSENCE OF DREAMING
IT’S BEING ABLE TO UNDERSTAND THE DIFFERNCE BETWEEN
THE ONES YOU CAN HOLD AND THE ONES THAT YOU’VE BEEN SOLD
DREAMING IS A GOOD THING CAUSE IT BRINGS NEW THINGS TO LIFE
BUT PRETENDING IS AN ENDING THAT PERPETURATES A LIE
FORGETTING WHAT YOU ARE SEEING FOR WHAT YOU’VE BEEN TOLD
TRUTH IS STRANGER THAN FICTION
 THIS IS MY CHANCE TO GET IT RIGHT
LIFE IS MUCH BETTER
WITHOUT ALL OF YOUR PRETTY LIES

CHORUS:
SO GOODBYE ALICE INWONDERLAND
YOU CAN KEEP YOUR YELLOW BRICK ROAD
THERE IS A DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN DREAMING AND PRETENDING
THESE ARE NOT TEARS IN MY EYES
THEY ARE ONLY A REFLECTION OF MY LONELY MIND FINDING
THEY ARE ONLY A REFLECTION OF MY LONELY MIND FINDING;
I FOUND WHATS MISSING IN MY LIFE
