The little white rabbit got caught up in his teeth,
Like a fly in a web she forgot how to breath.
Oh the struggle of kicks and claws and screams,
It’s the nightmare that takes children just following dreams,
Blood and dancing, the stains of spilt wine,
it’s a tale you’ll remember for the rest of your time,
So deceived by his charming smile,
She did not see the darkness behind the guile.
The little white rabbit dazed by poison and smoke,
Took his hand in the darkness and laughed at every joke,
He thinks to let her go, this time only,
But he knows that without him she would be terribly lonely.
The wolf has such a strong burning desire,
This kind of wolf is the most beautiful liar.
