Unknown Artist - Goodbye Alice in Wonderland lyrics

Verse 1: It's four in the afternoon I'm on a flight leaving L.A Trying to think about my life My youth scattered along the highway Hotel rooms and headlines I've made a living with a song Just a guitar as my companion Wanting desperately to belong Fame is filled with spoiled children They grow fat on fantasy I guess that's why I'm leaving I crave reality Chorus 1: So goodbye Alice in Wonderland Goodbye yellow brick road There is a difference between dreaming and pretending I did not find paradise It was only a reflection of my lonely mind wanting What's been missing in my life Verse 2: I'm embara**ed to say the rest is rock and roll cliche I hit the bottom when I reached the top But I never knew it was you who was breaking my heart I thought you had to love me You did not Yes a heart can hallucinate If it's completely starved for love And can even turn monsters Into angels from above You forged my love just like a weapon And turned it against me like a knife You broke my last heartstring But you opened up my eyes Chorus 2: So goodbye Alice in Wonderland Goodbye yellow brick road There is a difference between dreaming and pretending That was not love in your eyes It was only a reflection of my lonely mind searching For what's been missing in my life Bridge: And growing up is not the absence of dreaming It's being able to understand the difference between the ones you can hold And the ones that you've been sold Dreaming is a good thing Cause it brings new things to life Pretending is an ending that perpetuates a lie Forgetting what you are Seeing for what you've been told Verse 3: Oh, truth is stranger than fiction And this is my chance to get it back Life is much better without all of your pretty lies Chorus 3: So Goodbye Alice in Wonderland You can keep your yellow brick road Cause there is a difference between dreaming and pretending That was not love in your eyes It was only a reflection of my lonely mind wanting It was only a reflection of my lonely mind wishing That you were what was missing from my life
