I Only Paint in Red Now

de Lydia the Bard

Welcome to Wonderland
Come in have no fear
You're one of us now
(Giggles)
We're all mad here

A lost girl inside a maze

She ask for help, but receives riddles, receives threats

Lost for days, remains unfazed
I play your game, and either way
I lose my head

Two truths and one line the time flies as madness descends, what begins and what ends
Who am I, who are you
What's a lie what is True?
How do you find a way out
When what's left appears right and what's right always wrong
Clinging to sanity, or embrace the fantasy?

You seem to walk for miles
Met with feline smiles
As grins begin to turn into scowls

(You're one of us now)

Looking in the looking glass
(I trip, I fall from big to small I just want home)
Its not my fault!
Chasing time it moves so fast
(You sip, you smile stay a while
Put down your mind And join the wild)
My thread of thoughts are fading
Impulsive webs invading
Wonderland words coming out of my mouth
(You're one us now)

Crimson red hearts
Stone from the start
Betcha they're beating now
Hatters and cards, yeah I'll tear them apart
'Cause the fire need feeding now
Send kind regards
Drop the facade
Everyone hear my vow
I'll embrace this Wonderland crown
I only paint in red now
Wailing and tears
Sweet music I hear
Sweat beading on your brow
Now would you deny me my right to reply
You see I'm not done speaking so let's see you brow
No way out in sight
So try as I might
I'm giving up oh
I'll embrace this Wonderland crown
I only paint in red now
I'll speak in rhyme, if riddles you seek
I'll give you riddles, recite them for free
(Are you scared of me?)
Are you scared of me? (More loud)
The clocks run out too late to wake up
You're locked under this nightmare's thumb
Begging you hide and run

What have I become?

Alice, sweetheart it's time for tea
Alice?
Alice!
Crimson red hearts
Stone from the start
Betcha they're beating now

Can someone please me show the way out
I'm not sure who I am or how
I'm part of Wonderland now
Chasing down sanity till I drop
Mind runs away and it just wont stop
Please I am begging you just let me out

I only paint in red now
