Rabbit Hole

down we go through the rabbit hole
down we go through the rabbit
hole we spin we fall
we lose control we go
do you ever feel you’re all alone
do you ever lose your sense of home
before you know it you’re falling underground
you feel the weight of the world on your chest
your head is heavy and your heart’s possessed
you try, you try, but something pulls you down
something pulls you down, down, down into the dark
the only light that guides you is a spark
when you were younger you would tell yourself
«someday i’m gonna be someone else»,
you cried, you cried, yourself to sleep each night
you were different,
you were isolated
what made you special was what you created
but no one saw the light inside your soul, the light inside…
lonely girl, crying out
tired of being special
no one knows how heavy
is the weight of her potential.
and she cries at night,
as she writes her life,
in the pages of someone else’s book.
down we go through the rabbit hole
down we go through the rabbit hole
we spin, we fall, we lose control, we go
who am i underneath it all?
will i stand after i fall?
i don’t know if i know myself at all
