[Verse 1] Red hair in the dark Ink stains on her hands Coffee cold on the table Maps of scars on this land Broken neon and whispers Teeth behind every smile She walks straight through their shadows Counting lies Counting miles [Chorus] Alice in the dark But her heart is light Soft voice Steel eyes She will stand and fight If you’re lost out here She will take your side Alice in the dark But she burns so bright [Verse 2] Vampires in the towers Paper-thin alibis Wolves in tailored jackets Gold blood in their eyes She’s “only” made of daylight They laugh and bare their fangs She records every tremor Every threat Every name [Chorus] Alice in the dark But her heart is light Soft voice Steel eyes She will stand and fight If you’re lost out here She will take your side Alice in the dark But she burns so bright [Bridge] She will hold your shaking hand (hey) While the monsters circle in Gentle doesn’t mean she breaks Kindness doesn’t mean she bends [Chorus] Alice in the dark But her heart is light Soft voice Steel eyes She will stand and fight If you’re lost out here She will take your side Alice in the dark But she burns so bright Alice in the dark Yeah She burns so bright (oh)
