Alice
You were only seventeen
Still fleshing out your dreams for the world
You were small and you were smart
You felt angels in your heart so I heard
They took you away from each other
They put your mother on the other side of the line
You must have been so scared
Alice what did you wear
Alice what did you wear
Did you ever write it down
Did you ever speak about it again
And my father says you prayed
You lit candles and you waved out your hands
I think I have your eyes and sometimes
When I cry it's like I feel you crying too
I know the lies we tell ourselves to get by
And so did you
Alice what did you wear
Alice what did you wear when they took you away
Alice what did you wear
Alice what did you wear that day
And I'm sorry I'm holding you now
I'm sorry I'm holding you now
You must have been so scared
You must have been so scared
Alice what did you wear
Alice what did you wear
Still fleshing out your dreams for the world
You were small and you were smart
You felt angels in your heart so I heard
They took you away from each other
They put your mother on the other side of the line
You must have been so scared
Alice what did you wear
Alice what did you wear
Did you ever write it down
Did you ever speak about it again
And my father says you prayed
You lit candles and you waved out your hands
I think I have your eyes and sometimes
When I cry it's like I feel you crying too
I know the lies we tell ourselves to get by
And so did you
Alice what did you wear
Alice what did you wear when they took you away
Alice what did you wear
Alice what did you wear that day
And I'm sorry I'm holding you now
I'm sorry I'm holding you now
You must have been so scared
You must have been so scared
Alice what did you wear
Alice what did you wear
