lyrics

I can paint the walls now
A new scrapbook for a brand new dream
Scratch in the margins
A 9-month collage of you and me

But Alice, listen
A rooftop is no place for a queen
We don’t know if help is coming
Can’t tell sirens from the screams

And it’s only the test of our kind
Someone who loves you less would put you,
Bring you into the light, that
I know I’m cheating you

Mother Earth rumbles
And she gratefully spits back the sea
But from your shelter
You won’t see all mankind in retreat

So Alice, be strong
Contented to live on in my heart
So soon until I know you
So soon you must depart

And it’s only the best of my life
The moments when everything’s okay
Can’t compare to the ones
That take your breath away

Alice, alibi, it’s airtight
And they’re piling on your birthright
More charred earth to break through
Behind so many moons
You patiently loom
To fly down and light up rooms like you do
With my brother’s sharp wit
Charisma, delight
My mother’s laugh
This damned world’s cries

And it’s only the rest of this plight
I’ll close out leaving nothing behind
In the rearview
A glimmer in a would-be father’s eyes

But Alice, you’ve seen through it all
