I Am Not Alice

I followed you
       Like Alice  
     And the bunny
           I fell 
        And fell
        Deeper
     Into this dark hole
           I felt
         And felt
         Deeper
         For you
     But you were
          Always
     Rushing to some place
     That doesn't include me
           I tried
        And tried
      To stay sane
      I seen the mad hatter
      I understood
        Exactly what 
       I had become
       I'm sorry but
      I am not Alice
         Anymore
