It’s four in the afternoon
I’m on a flight leaving 1)L.A.
Trying to figure out my life
My youth scattered along the highway
Hotel rooms and headlines
I’ve made a living with a song
Guitar as my companion
Wanting desperately to belong
Fame is filled with spoiled children
We grow fat on fantasy
I guess that’s why I’m leaving
I 2)crave reality
So goodbye Alice in Wonderland
Goodbye 3)yellow brick road
There is a difference between dreaming and pretending
I did not find paradise
It was only a reflection of my lonely mind wanting
For what was missing in my life
I’m embarrassed to say the rest is a 4)rock and roll cliché
I hit the bottom when I reached the top
I never knew it was you who was breaking my heart
I thought you had to love me
But you did not
Yes, a heart can 5)hallucinate
If it’s completely starved for love
It can even turn monsters into
Angels from above
You 6)forged my love just like a weapon
And turned it against me like a knife
You broke my last heartstring
But you opened up my eyes
So goodbye Alice in Wonderland
Goodbye yellow brick road
There is a difference between dreaming and pretending
That was not love in your eyes
It was only a reflection of my lonely mind searching
For what’s been missing in my life
And growing up is not an absence of dreaming
It’s being able to understand the difference between
The ones you can hold and the ones that you’ve been 7)sold
And dreaming is a good thing
Cause it brings new things to life
But pretending is an ending
That perpetuates a lie
Forgetting what you are
Seeing for what you’ve been told
Truth is stranger than fiction
And this is my chance to get it right
Life is much better without all of those pretty lies
So goodbye Alice in Wonderland
You can keep your yellow brick road
There is a difference between dreaming and pretending
These are not tears in my eyes
They are only a reflection of my lonely mind finding
They are only a reflection of my lonely mind finding
I’ve found what’s missing in my life
下午四点
我在飞离洛杉矶的班机上
试着去理顺生活
我的青春散落在公路上
就宿于各地旅馆，无数次登上头条
我以一首歌成功立足
吉他为伴
我强烈渴望被接受和认可
有名的人大多是被宠坏的孩子
幻想使我们贪求无餍
我猜想这就是我离开的原因
我渴望活在现实里
因此再见吧，梦游仙境的爱丽丝
再见吧，黄砖路
梦想和矫饰不同
我没有找到天堂
那不过是我孤独心灵的一种反映，我渴望
找到生命中缺失的东西
尽管尴尬，我不得不说一句摇滚乐界的陈词滥调
当我的事业到达顶峰时，我的心情跌落到了谷底
我从未想过，会是你让我心碎
我以为你一定会爱我
但你没有
是的，如果心对爱饥渴
它会产生幻觉，认假为真
它甚至可以把妖魔认作
下凡的天使
你把我的爱炼成一种武器
然后把它像刀子一样捅向我
你断了我最后一根心弦
但你让我看清了现实
因此再见吧，梦游仙境的爱丽丝
再见吧，黄砖路
梦想和矫饰不同
你眼里的不是爱
不过是我孤独心灵的一种反映，我努力
寻找生命中缺失的东西
成长不是梦想的消失
而是一种能分辨你坚守的东西
与导致你被骗的东西的能力
并且梦想是个好东西
因为它给生命带来新鲜事物
但矫饰是一个终结
它使谎言无限期地延续
忘了你是谁
只着眼于人们告诉你的那些东西
真实比虚构更奇怪
而这是我求取真实的机会
没有那些漂亮的谎言，生活会变得更美好
因此再见吧，梦游仙境的爱丽丝
你可以留住你的黄砖路
梦想和矫饰不同
我眼里的不是泪水
不过是我孤独心灵的一种反映，我意识到
不过是我孤独心灵的一种反映，我意识到
我已经找到了生命中缺失的东西
