Catena Rondo
-alice-

I've gone so far away, it's not a laughing affair.
Here in this deep forest I've walked, I'm alone,
Whispering the winds with a heart of stone.
I've gone so far away, it's not a laughing affair.

Here in this deep forest I've walked, I'm alone.
I am left to fall like a dirty, rotten, forsaken fruit,
For I am nothing, simply covered with dirt and soot.
Here in this deep forest I've walked, I'm alone.

I am left to fall like a dirty, rotten, forsaken fruit.
Without considering, I've gone sans a trance,
Like a child, I cry out loud, for I've got no chance.
I am left to fall like a dirty, rotten, forsaken fruit.

Alice

Foolish I was once before, ignorant to what was told,
I've gone so far away, it's not a laughing affair,
Having run away without a thought or a care.
Foolish I was once before, ignorant to what was told.

I've gone so far away, it's not a laughing affair. 
Here in this deep forest I've walked, I'm alone,
Whispering the winds with a heart of stone.
I've gone so far away, it's not a laughing affair.
