about

A song about Alice Quinn's journey on The Magicians Season 2 and in Lev Grossman's The Magician's Land, told from her perspective.

lyrics

When it was over
I dove down deep into the earth
I liked it down there after
I left behind all of the hurt

Flew into space and
I jostled stars on my way up
Nothing could take me down
So I spent a week inside the sun

You know how good I used to be
So worried what people thought of me
But way out there
I could just be

Chorus:
When I turned blue I laughed, I got the joke at last
And it’ll never stop being funny
Why’d you bring me back, won’t you change me back
Did you think I’d be grateful, honey
Cause you took away the power I had
You could never even fathom all the power I had
Oh wuh uh oh, wish I could go
Back to being a niffin

I slid backwards in time
Saw how the world began
I made beautiful magic
That you will never understand

I’d fly for days
And never feel worn out or bored
I still have so much of the
Universe left to explore

Want you to know what you took from me
Billions of wonders I’ll never see
I’m begging you to set me free

Chorus

At least I’ve got bacon, is that enough
Took a hot bath, but is that enough
Guess I’ll have sex, was that enough
I’ll need some more, just to make real sure

Put on fresh socks, is that enough
Had a real big sneeze, was that enough
Now I’ve had chocolate, and that’s enough
You wore me down, guess I’ll stick around
