Alice
Avril Lavigne Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm underground, I fell down
Yeah, I fell down
I'm freakin' out, so where am I now?
Upside down and I can't stop it now
It can't stop me now,
Ohhh
I,
I'll get by
I,
I'll survive
When the world's crashin' down
When I fall and hit the ground
I will turn myself around
Don't you try to stop me
I,
I won't cry
I'll play the game, but I can't stay
I've got my head on straight, and I'm not gonna change
I'm not gonna change
I'll win the race, keep up with the pace
Today's the day, that I start to pray
You can't get in my way
No
I,
I'll get by
I,
I'll survive
When the world's crashin' down
When I fall and hit the ground
I will turn myself around
Don't you try to stop me
I,
I won't cry
I found myself (Myself) in Wonderland
Get back on (Back on) my feet (My feet) again (Again)
Is this real? (Is this real?)
Is it pretend? (Is it pretend?)
I'll take (I'll take) a stand (A stand) until (Until) the end
I,
I'll get by
I,
I'll survive
When the world's crashin' down
When I fall and hit the ground
I will turn myself around
Don't you try to stop me!
I, I won't cry
I,
I'll get by
I,
I'll survive
When the world's crashin' down
When I fall and hit the ground
I will turn myself around
Don't you try to stop me!
I, and I won't cry
The song "Alice" by Avril Lavigne is featured in the 2010 Tim Burton film "Alice in Wonderland". On the surface, the lyrics seem to describe Alice's journey through the whimsical and chaotic world of Wonderland. However, the song can also be interpreted as a personal journey of self-discovery, as Avril sings about overcoming obstacles and refusing to let anyone stop her from achieving her goals.
The opening lines describe a feeling of disorientation and confusion, as if the singer has fallen down a rabbit hole and entered a strange new world. Despite feeling lost, she is determined to push forward and "get by" no matter what challenges lie ahead. Throughout the song, she emphasizes her strength and resilience in the face of adversity, declaring "I won't cry" and "you can't get in my way".
The chorus is the most empowering part of the song, with the repeated lines "when the world's crashing down / when I fall and hit the ground / I will turn myself around / don't you try to stop me". This suggests that even when things seem hopeless, the singer will always find a way to pick herself up and keep going. The bridge of the song adds an extra layer of depth by questioning the reality of the situation. It's almost as if the singer knows that her journey is metaphorical rather than literal, but she's determined to see it through to the end regardless.
