O Espelho de Alice

I wake up and look in the mirror
I see an old smile
And a vacant stare
The heart is just old age
And in Alice's madness
I see myself on the other side

From hope, all that's left is fear
My life, a secret
That sees the world upside down
Everything feels so strange
All the pain is so immense
And I'm its inventory

I left my judgment behind
I mix up crying and laughing
Right with wrong
But in this crazy clarity
I know this is the time
When the end is a new beginning
