Game Over Alice

I'm a fairytale girl
In a fairytale dream
stuck on my side
The chess pieces stand still
waiting to hear that final checkmate
So many strategies
So many plans
but they all fail in the end

My time is constricted 
My times running out
with this false hope that everything's fine
Time is just a number
and this code is one I just can't crack
slipping right through my fingers
I don't know what to do
The disease is spreading
