Goblin Garden
Go tell Alice
go tell Alice the white rabbit fell
cracked his skull on a wishing well
drunk one too many of her bottles of pain
go tell her he's to blame! he's to blame!
go tell Alice the sky has bled
go tell Alice the caterpillar's dead
high on his hookah his brain has fried
go tell Alice he's died! he's died!
Go tell Alice the queen wants her heart
go tell her wonderland's falling apart
splintering and falling to the ground
go tell Alice it's gone! it's gone!
go tell Alice her nightmares have come back
the train to nowhere fell off the track
screeching and screaming in the blaze
go tell her it's in flames! it's in flames!
go tell Alice she's gotten herself in too deep
cannot wake up, so sleep, so sleep
the Cheshire cat's laughing again
go tell Alice she's insane! she's insane!
Laura Lee
Come rest ye maidens soft and fair
come wander out to sea
for she has stepped into the waves
my sweet Laura Lee.
And who are you to weigh my truth
and weight my sorrow's pain?
while I kneel down to kiss the sky
which baptizes me in rain.
Come forth ye maidens soft and pale
and dive into the sea
go find my broken-hearted soul
and bring her back to me.
A thousand nights I walk these shores
clad in skins of black
I hear the whisper of the wind
'She's never coming back.'
Come maidens with your curls
and eyes of summers blue
I've sacrificed maidens ten
and bled them out for you.
