Wonderland 02:55
I always picture Wonderland as a place to go forget, where a little vial won't last a while and sets loose thoughts in your head. How can you go through little doors when you're standing ten feet tall? Is it an easy feat to get that small, is it hard to change at all? People spend too much time talking 'bout the wrong things. I can barely listen for more than a minute and they never care what I think. And I don't worry too much about things better left unread. If there's broken parts even a queen of hearts will say, "off with your head!" I get lost in playing pretend and sometimes it's too easy to get lost in you're own head. To go down rabbit holes that shouldn't have been dug. You'll be okay by the end of the day until the sun comes up! Now there's no use going back to yesterday, I was a different person then. Change will come, it isn't fun, but it's all about the end. The reality in what you see behind the smile in the dark, is it something worse than just a verse that makes us fall apart. People spend to much time looking through the mirror. The very few already knew that we were always mad out here. You can do what you want with the hand that you're dealt and the games you play. Chess or cards, some distracted guards, nothing much left to say! I get lost in playing pretend and sometimes it's too easy to get lost in you're own head. to go down rabbit holes that shouldn't have been dug, you'll be okay by the end of the day until the sun comes up.

No I know that I don't wanna hesitate. I'm feeling it now and that must mean something. So whats the point in overthinking things that haven't even happened yet. Don't you think in this day and age that we'd find a better way to not go insane. But so many of us still lose our way. And we play the part that our parents wrote, sit around instead of get up and go. It's a vicious cycle we must learn to outgrow. We spend too much time tearing apart our minds, our souls, and our broken hearts. Don't we deserve some peace since we've made it this far. But here we are ruled by insecurity, falling to our knees to beg and plead for love, from those who's hearts are filled with greed. Our minds are all we own, thats ours and everything we've known. why is it so hard to let go. I'm sick of it and I'll tell you this, we're worth more than this shit! No i know that I don't wanna hesitate but I'm feeling it now and that must mean something. So whats the point in overthinking things that haven't even happened yet. Maybe I'm wrong but my opinion is whats the point of life without the living. I'd rather have my friends and a night of drinking than anything else than the man is giving. There's been a few times without a dollar to my name, so i held my own and the rest all came. Funny how what they say is important doesn't stop your heart and you keep on going. Our minds are all we've known thats ours and everything we've known. Why is it so hard to let go. I'm sick of it and I'll tell you this, we're worth more than this shit! So i know that I don't wanna hesitate. I'm feeling it now and that must mean something. So whats the point in overthinking things that haven't even happened yet. (3x)

Blank Space 03:52
We walk this earth to find our light, but little do (little do) before we say goodbye. We kid ourselves and say "this will do". But hearts break when were taking to soon. Oh so, so young and left in the dark. So much to say, to say before we part. Hold my hand take easy steps. My heart is weak and my knees will give in. My soul can only take so much loss. So one more rush before we're all gone. Tighten the strap and bend the spoon. Lay alone in the light of the moon. No one truly knows the pain, until you hear the sirens come a second to late. Oh so, so long and left in the dark. So much to say, to say before we part. Hold my hand take easy steps. My heart is weak and my knees will give in. My soul can only say so much loss. So one more rush before we're all gone. It seems every year our hearts break, as we see the new name that fills the blank space. They pay the same debts that our brothers knew. Just different words to the same tune. Hold my hand take easy steps. My heart is weak and my knees will give in. My soul can only take so much loss. So one more rush before we're all gone. Doctor, doctor numb the pain. All I need is a way to escape. Don't know the price but keep the change. Cause we're all dying anyway, We're all dying anyway!

Let it Go 01:24
They all teach us to be nice and not mean. They all teach us to love thyself and thy neighbor. Until you interfere with their dogma or creed. And then they tell you you're not right so something tells me they don't know! I don't know! And so I open up my eyes and then I start to see that all these Gods we're all the same it doesn't matter. Everyday alive we're one more closer to where once we came so let's all try to love we're all gonna fucking die so let it go! Let it go

I gave you something more valuable than gold. With a smile on my face, I gave it all. I gave you something more precious than my song, just to hear you voice all night long. I thought an arm or a leg would ease your mind, but you wanted the whole body to feed your pride. So I gave you that too, but it still wouldn't do the justice it should that I thought this time would. But you took it and ran and before I could understand what happened or where it went. No one knew. You were nowhere to be seen and before I could beg and plead I lost it, lost everything. Even me! You left no trace, just a misleading face. I let you walk right in and didn't hesitate. Blindly, boldly I clung to every word. But all I have left is a heart full of hurt. Oh it's not fair no life it never is. Why, why, why did I give it all to him. You taught me more than love ever would. But I'll take it all back if I ever could. But you took it and ran, and before I could understand what happened or where it went. No one knew. You were nowhere to bee seen and before i could beg and plead, I lost it, lost everything. Even me!
