[Verse 1]
He wore a grin like a warning sign
Top hat tilted, eyes like a knife
You found him where the roses bend
One wrong step and it begins
She traced the edge of his crooked smile
White dress dragging through the wild
He said, “Don’t ask me where I go”
“Some doors open just to swallow souls”
[Pre-Chorus]
If you follow me
You lose your name
If you follow me
You call it fate
[Chorus]
Mad Hatter, take me down
Alice, don’t turn around
We were never meant to last
But we still ran into the glass
Mad Hatter, break my heart
Alice, fall apart
If this is where the ruin starts
Let me love you in the dark
[Verse 2]
Tea cups shattered on the floor
He kissed her like a closing door
Every promise tasted sweet and cruel
Like a dare in a moonlit room
She said, “You’re poison in a velvet glove”
He said, “Baby, that is all I’ve got”
Still she reached for his trembling hand
Like a curse she could not stand
[Pre-Chorus]
If you follow me
You lose your name
If you follow me
You call it fate
[Chorus]
Mad Hatter, take me down
Alice, don’t turn around
We were never meant to last
But we still ran into the glass
Mad Hatter, break my heart
Alice, fall apart
If this is where the ruin starts
Let me love you in the dark
[Bridge]
He said, “I am the maze”
She said, “I am the fall”
Two lost souls in a painted haze
Still they answered when darkness called
[Chorus]
Mad Hatter, take me down
Alice, don’t turn around
We were never meant to last
But we still ran into the glass
Mad Hatter, break my heart
Alice, fall apart
If this is where the ruin starts
Let me love you in the dark
[Outro]
Mad Hatter, take me down
Alice, don’t turn around
Let me love you in the dark
