Stuck In Wonderland

Crazy, chaotic, & stressful

That about summed up my life

I'd often daydream

Imagining myself away from this place

Somewhere fun, without any worries to ruin my day

Come with me, fly on a magic carpet

Imagine it and it'll happen

Animals talk and trees do too

Chase a white rabbit for awhile

Would you care to have tea with me?

Stroll with me down a golden path

Make a wish or two

And watch them come true

What's that you say?

Oh silly me, make that wishes three for thee

But too far down the rabbit hole I must have fell this time

The further from reality I stray

Wherever I look, danger seems to follow

The sky gets darker and darker

And an evil queen wants me dead

My genie vanished

No ruby slippers that'll take me home

Someone call my name

Wake me, please

Save me from this place

They call it Wonderland

A magical place

But they forgot to mention

Just how twisted magic can be

Turning childhood fantasies into nightmares

As stressful as real life can be

I realized then perhaps it's not so bad after all

Hurry, the queen is chasing me!

And my magic carpet has gone M.I.A.

Wake me now and save the day

The white rabbit is shouting something to me

But his voice has become distorted

The wicked witch joined the hunt for my head

I beg of you, please

Save me before I end up dead

Oh silly girl, don't you know?

You're not asleep at all

Though it is all inside your head

Focus now on reality instead

For what you see is what you get

No more Wonderland for me

One more glimpse back

I toss the key into the mist

And walk forward toward the light

For that's the right way to go

Not sideways or upside down

Going backwards is counterproductive

I like to go on an adventure now and then

But sometimes reality is more thrilling

And definitely worth living in
