Lyrics

When Alice has an answer
It's a common rationality
She measures her phrases
Tipping the scales of reality
But does she know that it's cold to sing songs to a troubled heart
And though her aim is sincere she's missing the mark

She paints her world in yellow and green
Covering over the greys
'Cause life's demands are hard to understand
So Alice stays lost in her wonderland

I said Alice look around you
People are falling to pieces
Yeah, even the faithful
The ones who still believe in Jesus
But that doesn't mean they've fallen from grace
But in her landscape, their heartache is so out of place

She paints her world in yellow and green
Covering over the greys
'Cause life's demands are hard to understand
So Alice stays lost in her wonderland

So can we talk of shoes and of ships?
Can we talk of cabbages and kings?
And of learning to live with the mystery of things

She paints her world in yellow and green
Covering over the greys
'Cause life's demands are hard to understand
So Alice stays lost in her wonderland

So Alice stays lost in her Wonderland
