I Dive Into The Rabbit Hole
And the voices say it is time
But my attention goes to the apple
and the witch crows that it's mine.
I say I will not eat it
I will not be tricked into sleep
I've fallen for these games before
I am no longer among the sheep.
I hear the distant humming
The Heigh-Ho's are coming nearer
A pick-ax is thrust into my hands
But my attention goes to the mirror.
I marvel at the faces I see
And wonder who's the most fair
A voice chimes in that its time to work
It's time to do my share.
I enter the underground cavern
Emeshed in darkness and stone
I heave my pick-ax up
And carve a path that leads to home.
The dwarves are here to ground me
I thank them for their care
They say they will keep me safe
From the evil witch's snare.
I pass up gems and diamonds
I trod on ruby saphire and gold
The hewning of the path
Is the treasure for the bold.
I will no longer be the simpleton
I am not here to sate and please
I will not labor in your quarry
I will not ingest poison and disease.
The feather falls to the table
The paper crisp and white and clear
It's time the voices say again
To Be every face inside the mirror.
Mirror Mirror on the wall
Who's the fairest of them all?
Magic Mirror on the wall
Who's the fairest of them all?
We are all One
Every murderer
Lives inside our bones
Every child molester
Speaks with our same tones.
Until we see through the smoke screen
Until we understand the game
We are every player in the play
Our characters all the same.
Mercy is the way out of the construct.
Love is the exit from the theatre.
Try to set us all free
Understand you are each face in every mirror.
