S.J.Tucker - Cheshire Kitten (We're All Mad Here) Şarkı Sözleri

I grew up seeing things a little differently
Appearing, disappearing, hardly innocent
Nor tied down to the ground
I learned to roll and tumble with the punches
Glory in my stripes and spots
Walk by invisible and never make a sound

But heavy is the crown that's always hidden
Tender is the heart you never see
Hard and fast shines the grin that we flash
But there's a vulnerable stripe or two on me

Maybe any place outside of Wonderland
Is not for me, my friend

If I leave my grin behind, remind me
That we're all mad here
And it's okay

Sun up, sun down the shadows hide me down in
Wonderland, Wonderland, nobody knows the way
But if you find it in your dreams
You can find it at your dayjob
Somewhere south of Hell
Take the path to left or right
With just your gut to guide you
The story is not for anyone else to tell

Go down the rabbit hole and out the other side
You can't go home in the middle of the magic carpet ride
You gotta greet the sun before his lovely daughter moon
You can't forsake the journey for the safety of your room
Until you learn your lesson well

I have learned to see and hear
Everybody loud and clear
But the truth comes out in riddles that are
Safe enough to share
That's how it is in songs, you see
And stripes always looked good on me
Whether or not I'm really there

(Smile hangs in the air)

But heavy is the burden of the wise one
When no one understands a word they say
The Jabberwock never bothered anyone
But nobody believes him to this day
And why should they?

If I leave my grin behind, remind me
That we're all mad here
And it's okay

Sun up, sun down the shadows find me out in
Wonderland, Wonderland, nobody knows the way
But if you find it in your dreams
You can find it at your dayjob
Somewhere south of Hell
Take the path to left or right
With just your gut to guide you
The story is not for anyone else to tell

You gotta go down the rabbit hole and out the other side
You can't go home in the middle of the magic carpet ride
You gotta greet the sun before his lovely daughter moon
You can't forsake the journey for the safety of your room
Until you learn your lesson well

Is it the stripes or the spots you see?
Was it hearts or diamonds, baby, brought you here to me?
Darling, you know better than to trust a pack of cards!
What have we learned
The world is never as mad as it could be

If I leave my grin behind, remind me
That we're all mad here
And it's ok!
