Lyrics

Alison, you take a bow and marvel and how lucky you are In the crowd you see yourself from years ago, cheering you on She doesn't believe in the audience Looking 'round, wanting no part in it Hating that she can't help joining in Breathing toxic air, it's in her head that the world is all mad So she must stay alert Alison, you take her hand and wonder how you could ever have been so small You try to hide emotions from so long ago, mirrored in her face She doesn't believe that she's capable Visions of triumph and happiness Inundate her senses 'til she drowns Suffocating in her seat with eyes bulging madly she fails to exhale in suspense Alison, you take a bow With no wings, you'll fall With no gills, you'll drown With no medicine, you'll die But she doesn't seem to try to set anchor down, use a safety net And she threw away the key, deliberately She doesn't believe in the audience Looking 'round, wanting no part in it Hating that she can't help joining in Breathing toxic air, it's in her head that the world is all mad So she must stay alert Suffocating in her seat with eyes bulging madly she fails to exhale her suspense Alison, you take a bow
