  • Lyrics:
    I'm not quite sure why the candle's ablaze
    When everything seems so dusty in place
    The wooden horse rocks a doll in gold locks
    To the ticking of a clock
    And the ticking runs out
    And the trickling comes down
    From her eyes as the wooden horse suddenly stops
    The looking glass shows me all there's to be
    But surely there's more than all this that I see?
    I have both my hands, my head, and my pants
    But oh my heart's gone missing
    Did it break by the bone?
    Was it sewn on a sleeve
    And snatched off by the hatter to store all his pins?
    Cobwebs, keep me warm 'till I fall to the floor
    So I'll know what I'm shrinking for
    'Cause I can't quite see the point, if it's pointing in awe
    If time's ticking at all
    I know not of teacups that serve their drinks mild
    They're always like potions, like dreams in a vial
    If their handlebars break,
    They can spill me a lake
    And I'll wash my sorrows away
    Oh I'll float through the pain on a porcelain plate
    And find a way home past the walrus' gaze
    Cobwebs, keep me warm 'till I fall to the floor
    So I'll know what I'm shrinking for
    'Cause I can't quite see the point, if it's pointing in awe
    If time's ticking at all
    Hour by hour and nothing by night
    The cogwheels spin tight but they can't rewind time
    Would things I find dear and ever so nice
    Reveal to be rusting and stain me in spite?
    ["Alice in Wonderland" theme]
    Pocket watch, please, would you still count me in?
    If I throw in my cards I might win back my keys
    The dice does its dance
    'Cause it's such a small chance
    But oh I can't stop hurting
    So I'll paint the grass green,
    Show the mice what it means
    To take without stealing the cake from the queen
    Cobwebs, keep me warm 'till I fall to the floor
    So I'll know what I'm shrinking for
    'Cause I can't quite see the point, if it's pointing in awe
    If time's ticking at all
