[al:Goodbye Alice In Wonderland]
[00:00.00]Goodbye Alice in Wonderland
[00:04.07]Jewel
[00:15.91]It's four in the afternoon
[00:20.40]I'm on a flight leaving L.A.
[00:28.81]Trying to think about my life
[00:33.02]My youth scattered along the highway
[00:40.30]Hotel rooms and headlines
[00:46.56]I've made a living with a song
[00:53.06]Just a guitar as my companion
[00:57.03]Wanting desperately to belong
[01:04.87]Fame is filled with spoiled children
[01:10.06]They grow fat on fantasy
[01:17.02]I guess that's why I'm leaving
[01:22.15]I crave reality
[01:28.11]So goodbye Alice in Wonderland
[01:37.02]Goodbye yellow brick road
[01:43.69]There is a difference
[01:45.67]between dreaming and pretending
[01:49.01]I did not find paradise
[01:54.81]It was only a reflection
[01:57.81]of my lonely mind searching
[02:03.96]For what was missing in my life
[02:12.85]I'm embarassed to say
[02:15.25]the rest is a rock and roll cliche
[02:18.11]I hit the bottom when I reached the top
[02:23.45]I never knew it was you
[02:28.15]who was breaking my heart
[02:30.18]I thought you had to love me
[02:33.85]You did not
[02:37.78]Yes a heart can hallucinate
[02:43.51]If it's completely starved for love
[02:49.73]Can even make monsters seem like
[02:55.49]Angels from above
[03:01.84]You forged my love like a weapon
[03:06.69]And turned it against me like a knife
[03:14.19]You broke my last heartstring
[03:20.14]But you opened up my eyes
[03:25.68]So goodbye Alice in Wonderland
[03:34.44]Goodbye yellow brick road
[03:40.67]There is a difference
[03:42.25]between dreaming and pretending
[03:46.00]That was not love in your eyes
[03:51.59]It was only a reflection
[03:54.08]of my lonely mind wanting
[04:00.26]what was missing in my life
[04:05.30]And growing up is not the absence of dreaming
[04:09.09]It's being able to understand
[04:11.11]the difference between the ones you can hold
[04:13.53]And the ones that you've been sold
[04:18.63]Dreaming is a good thing
[04:19.88]cause it brings new things to life
[04:21.50]Pretending is an ending that perpetuates a lie
[04:24.30]Forgetting what you are
[04:26.33]Seeing for what you've been told
[04:31.33]Well, truth is stranger than fiction
[04:36.97]And this is my chance to get it right
[04:43.96]Life is much better
[04:47.55]without all of your pretty lies
[04:54.31]So Goodbye Alice in Wonderland
[05:02.80]You can keep your yellow brick road
[05:08.98]there is a difference
[05:11.50]between dreaming and pretending
[05:15.20]There`s not tears in my eyes
[05:20.67]It was only a reflection of my lonely mind searching
[05:28.31]It was only a reflection of my lonely mind finding
[05:36.02]I find what`s missing in my life
