Through the Looking Glass

This is a song not a poem. It was inspired by the novel Alice's Adventures in Wonderland as well as the non-animated film of the same plot.

Verse One:
I'm isolated, I can hear them conversatin' about me.

Don't understand why I'm so hated, and berated.
Lord why me?

Bridge:
Oh can't you see I'm down the rabbit hole,
Can someone save me at last?
Oh please, if you have a soul,

Can you look....through the looking glass?

Chorus:
You'll see a girl with a sparkle in her eye.
A girl who dreams to touch the sky.
Who loves the sea, but bound to shore.
And everyday she longs for more.

Verse Two:
But this isn't what you see,
All you see is insanity.
Your feet are glued to the stable land, while I fly in Wonderland.

But I'm faced with all my fears,
And drowning in a sea of tears.
'Cause through the hole, yes, I can see, that no one is going to rescue me.

Bridge:
Oh can't you see I'm down the rabbit hole,
Can someone save me at last?
Oh please, if you have a soul,

Can you look....through the looking glass?

Chorus:
You'll see a girl with a sparkle in her eye.
A girl who dreams to touch the sky.
Who loves the sea, but bound to shore.
And everyday she longs for more.

Verse Three:
But you are deaf to all my cries,
And shadows are dancing in your eyes.
So while you're sleeping in your bed,
The queen will say "Off with your head!"

Bridge:
Oh can't you see I'm down the rabbit hole,
Can someone save me at last?
Oh please, if you have a soul,

Can you look....through the looking glass?

Chorus(x2):
You'll see a girl with a sparkle in her eye.
A girl who dreams to touch the sky.
Who loves the sea, but bound to shore.
And everyday she longs for more.

If you look....

Through the looking glass.....

Love the words. only thing that would make this better, is if there was some music to go with it and if it was being played on the radio. Keep on writing

Thanks so much. And I am working on getting someone to help me with the music because I have zero talent on the piano and an ameteur on guitar. But thank you for reading.
