WONDERLAND is the journey. An ominous voice promises you your dreams. It warns you of the dangers that lead you through the decision process of surrendering what you have in the hopes of something new. The voice knows too well your desperation for more, for different.
Inspired by the tunnel in Willy Wonka, a twisted and corrupted version of Alice in Wonderland's Cheshire Cat and by our own hopes and fears.
WONDERLAND is the companion for those who are in the heat of the chase and are itching with restlessness to see what is on the other side of the rabbithole.
lyrics
Surely you know what you’ve gotten into
And surely you don’t care, that’s why you’re here
It’s not deep down the rabbit hole to wonderland
And if that’s what you’re looking for, I’m your man
So hold on, you’ll make it if your will is strong, I know
No going back, you gave your heart to Wonderland
It’s you and me, so sweet, you ready?
Now come with me we’ll touch the sky
Hold on, keep running and your day will come, I know
Losing grip, your mind’s dividing, don’t trust your senses
On the way down, the heart is a liar
The air tastes sweet down the rabbit hole to wonderland
But if you’re not too careful, you’ll never land
So hold on, you’ll make it if your will is strong, I know
No going back, you gave your heart to Wonderland
It’s you and me, so sweet, you ready?
Now come with me we’ll touch the sky
Hold on, keep running and your day will come, I know
All, we could have it all
Every moment is eternity, free falling through the ecstasy
All, take my heart and my soul
In the valley I will walk with you
In the dark I will see us through
So don’t wait as the sky fades, feel it coming, watch it crumble as we freefall
The technicolour will take your breath away and all that remains
So hold on, you’ll make it if your will is strong, I know
No going back, you gave your heart to Wonderland
It’s you and me, so sweet, you ready?
Now come with me we’ll touch the sky
Hold on, keep running and your day will come, I know
