Addiction

A fresh young girl with big blue eyes
Went by the name of Alice;
And Alice was a dear darling
Until she met the Rabbit.

And down the deepest darkest well
Did Alice fall and fall;
She fitfully glanced all about
But no one helped at all.

It seemed our girl with big blue eyes
And Rabbit on her arm
Had tasted all the joys of life,
The joys which did great harm.

And through the air she tumbled down
Until she saw the sky;
The sky she saw below her now
Was rounded like an eye.

And all around her all she saw
Were vials and syringes;
She grew to dread the future day
When the vials emptied.

And Rabbit, Rabbit came and went
With each blink and whisper;
He'd smirk and laugh and give her treats
And watch her as she dreamed.

Alice, sweet and darling dear,
Would dream of light and daisies;
And when the light faded away,
She dreamed of empty vials.

A sweetness not unlike the love
Of family and her friends;
The candies gave her what she knew
She'd never have again.

By the bottom of the bottles
And her bloodied hands,
Alice was forever trapped
In dreams of Wonderland.
