Alice in Black

[Intro] The shadows, they whisper to me in the silence of my empty room. I stare into the void, searching for a glimmer of the forgotten light. Each night, I drift further away, lost in the abyss... can you feel the weight of it all? This darkness, this endless night that grips my soul. Sleep eludes me, but the dreams never cease—dreams of a past that haunt every waking moment. [Verse] See the haunted forest of which you and I speak Through these halls in black I do walk As a sign of your dream All this talk of innocence in the white dress of deceit Look in my eyes You are haunted In black I do weep [Verse 2] See the haunted forest of which you and I speak Through these halls in black I do walk As a sign of your dream All this talk of innocence in the white dress of deceit Look in my eyes You are haunted In black I do weep [Chorus] And though my days of light be lost in the night To darkness I still walk And I still live Though I've turned from the light For one hundred years or more I've heard you say Alice in Black Alice in Black Alice in Black [Verse 3] In the still of the night I can hear your cries That still of the night that time can't erase You can never forget my face From beyond the grave Still I hear you say Alice in Black Alice in Black Alice in Black [Bridge] There is a place that I know It's not far from here Where the trees do still grow From the dirt where the bodies of those you loved Are laid And if you ask the trees They'll say Alice in Black Alice in Black Alice in Black [Verse 4] In the still of the night I can hear your cries That still of the night that time can't erase You can never forget my face From beyond the grave Still I hear you say Alice in Black Alice in Black Alice in Black [Outro] In the quiet of my mind, shadows creep within, A room that's void of warmth, where thoughts begin to spin. Echoes of the past linger on and on, In this endless twilight, I'm forever drawn. With every breath, a sigh escapes my weary soul, Caught between the aching dark and dreams that take their toll. No peace awaits, only memories that cling, In a world painted black, where sorrow's the king. Alice in Black, a name whispered in despair, As I drift into the silence, alone in the midnight air, A vacant heart, a lowered gaze, beneath the starless sky, The weight of worlds unspoken, where even echoes die. The weight of worlds unspoken, where even echoes die.
