Goodbye Alice in Wonderland

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

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 searching

For what was missing in my life

I'm embarassed to say

the rest is a rock and roll cliche

I hit the bottom when I reached the top

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

Can even make monsters seem like

Angels from above

You forged my love like a weapon

And turned it against me like a knife

You broke my last heartstring

But you opened up my eyes

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 wanting

what was missing in my life

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

Well, truth is stranger than fiction

And this is my chance to get it right

Life is much better

without all of your pretty lies

So Goodbye Alice in Wonderland

You can keep your yellow brick road

there is a difference

between dreaming and pretending

There`s not tears in my eyes

It was only a reflection of my lonely mind searching

It was only a reflection of my lonely mind finding

I find what`s missing in my life
