You always wanna' be the best

It's a struggle without an end 

Running as fast as you can 

But you will never reach your goal 



It's the struggle of our daily life 

Of politics and war 

Everyone here runs so fast 

But never sees the finish 



And suddenly you find yourself 

Running with the red queen 

Through valleys and over hills 

And sometimes against the stream 

And suddenly you realize 

Nothing here is what it seems 

You are beyond the looking glass 

Like Alice and the red queen 



And when you wonder why 

You cannot get to this point 

Cannot finish what you started 

Then you are through the looking glass 



You're far beyond reality 

Or isn't this the real world? 

Where we all struggle and fight 

Without knowing what it's all for
