Lyrics
Once upon a time
In a land not so far away
There was a little girl growing up in a world that wasn?t so safe
So we taught her all about cinderella and we told her there would be white knights
She bathed in every sugar coated lie from the TV light
Naked underneath the dormitory lights
Nothing here in wonderland feels all right
She?s lost her ruby slippers and a piece of her mind
well alice sweet girl you?ll be just fine
Alice it?s all right
Your just lost in wonderland tonight
Open your eyes
Sometimes love isn?t right
For you
Cinderella
Oh they didn?t tell ya
The prince?s pre-nup it did not give her enough
She?s been working all these dirty nights
Trying to give her princess oh a better life
Naked underneath the dormitory lights
Nothing here in wonderland feels all right
She?s lost her ruby slippers and a piece of her mind
well alice sweet girl you?ll be just fine
Alice it?s all right
Your just lost in wonderland tonight
Open your eyes
Sometimes love isn?t right
For you
Nothing?s sacred
Nothings right
What once seemed wrong
Now it feels right
Oh sweet alice lost inside
She?s alone
Tonight
Alice it?s all right
Your just lost in wonderland tonight
Open your eyes
Sometimes love isn?t right
For you
