I decided to find a song related to my absolute favourite book called Wonder by Raquel J. Palacio.
Wonderland ~ By Taylor Swift
Flashing lights and we
Took a wrong turn and we
Fell down a rabbit hole.
You held on tight to me
'Cause nothing's as it seems
I'm spinning out of control.
Didn't they tell us don't rush into things?
Didn't you flash your green eyes at me?
Haven't you heard what becomes of curious minds?
Oh
Didn't it all seem new and exciting?
I felt your arms twisting around me
I should have slept with one eye open at night.
We found wonderland
You and I got lost in it
And we pretended it could last forever
Eh
We found wonderland
You and I got lost in it
And life was never worse but never better
Eh eh
Eh [5x]
In wonderland
Eh [5x]
In wonderland
Eh [5x]
In wonderland
Eh [5x]
In wonderland
So we went on our way
Too in love to think straight
All alone or so it seemed.
But there were strangers watching
And whispers turned to talking
And talking turned to screams.
Oh
Didn't they tell us don't rush into things?
Didn't you flash your green eyes at me?
Didn't you calm my fears with a Cheshire cat smile?
Oh
Didn't it all seem new and exciting?
I felt your arms twisting around me
It's all fun and games 'til somebody loses their mind.
But darling, we found wonderland
You and I got lost in it
And we pretended it could last forever
Eh
We found wonderland
You and I got lost in it
And life was never worse but never better
Eh eh
Eh [5x]
In wonderland
Eh [5x]
In wonderland
Eh [5x]
In wonderland
Eh [5x]
In wonderland
I reached for you but you were gone
I knew I had to go back home
You search the world for something else to make you feel like what we had
And in the end in wonderland we both went mad.
Oh
We found wonderland
You and I got lost in it
And we pretended it could last forever (last forever)
Eh eh
We found wonderland
You and I got lost in it (got lost in it)
And life was never worse but never better (never better)
Eh eh
We found wonderland
You and I got lost in it (wonderland)
And we pretended it could last forever (in wonderland)
We found wonderland
You and I got lost in it (wonderland)
And life was never worse but never better
Took a wrong turn and we
Fell down a rabbit hole.
You held on tight to me
'Cause nothing's as it seems
I'm spinning out of control.

Didn't you flash your green eyes at me?
Haven't you heard what becomes of curious minds?

In wonderland
I chose this particular song because the song is about two people and these two people I chose were the author of this book and how she felt whilst she was writing this book. The second person was the main character in this book who had quite a tough time when he started to go to a proper school, he had a dis-formed face so he was home-schooled for his whole life. The connection the author and the main character, Auggie have is the reason why I chose this song and their adventure through it.
Great choice
ReplyDeleteI love this song and the book I definitely see the connection! If you met August what would you first do? Why?
ReplyDeleteI would invite him to my house and ask him about everything that has happened! He is very brave to go through everything in the book, I would have never survived that!
DeleteBut would you not be a little bit nervous. To be honest I would be shocked because I haven't seen anything like it before. But I would try to understand and talk to him about everything.
DeleteI started Wonder but then I didn't finish it again it's no the type of book I would read. What's your favourite part of the book and why?
