Malice In Underland

I'm scared to sleep, 'cause I'll slowly creep Deeper & deeper into a frightening world Where Alice is Malice & Wonderland is Underland Where your nightmares come disgustingly alive They'll claw your skin & tangle your hair They'll scream & chase - they'll push & race Just to have a reason to be in your face The disgrace you'll feel, when it becomes real A sizzling slap in your head The whiff of a fiery dragon's breath There's no more solace you have left Driftin' & dancin' - Honeymoon romancin' A reflection of what you want to complete A ghostly white face in the sheets All the lights are on, but I still fall asleep Falling, crashing, & tumbling down underneath Understand you're falling & twisting to Underland Petty-ness, politics, posh & peculier to me A little girl thrashed in bloody sheets Chasing a Cheshire Cat through the tangled trees
