Alison Wonderland Releases New Hopeful Song, “Peace”

Alison Wonderland has never been shy about sharing her inner demons, talking about her depression, or discussing mental illness with her followers. It’s this openness, in part, that engenders such deep devotion from her fans. Her new song out today, “Peace,” speaks directly to the inner demons within all of us and says that it will get better one day.

“Now I am nervous,” she opined on Twitter. “I wrote [Peace] to help me find my own closure in something. I don’t feel at peace right now. In fact, I still feel kinda broken. No one gave me closure, I have to do it on my own.”

The accompanying music video, also out today, finds Alison transitioning between a dark warehouse and brightly lit white and pure space. The dichotomy and juxtaposition is a clear metaphor for the instability of emotion and how easy it is to experience highs and lows.

Watch below and follow along with the lyrics.

I wonder why I can’t sleep without you by my–

[Pre-Chorus]
Wish I, I could find the words to say
Words to say to you
Wish that you could see the other way
Someday

[Chorus]
Someday I’ll be better
Now that you gone, I’ll burn all your letters
And write all your wrongs
Right now I am barely off of my knees
But someday I’ll find peace
Someday, someday, someday I’ll find peace
Someday, someday, someday I’ll find

[Verse 2]
What’s it like? How’s your life?
Did it hurt you when you saw me cry?
I wonder why I still think about you all the–

[Pre-Chorus]
Wish I, I could find the words to say
Words to say to you
Wish that you could see the other way
Someday

[Chorus]
Someday I’ll be better
Now that you gone, I’ll burn all your letters
And write all your wrongs
Right now I am barely off of my knees
But someday I’ll find peace
Someday, someday, someday I’ll find peace
Someday, someday, someday I’ll find

[Bridge]
Someday
Someday

[Chorus]
Someday I’ll be better
Now that you gone, I’ll burn all your letters
And write all your wrongs
Right now I am barely off of my knees
But someday I’ll find (One, two, three) peace
Someday, someday, someday I’ll find peace
Someday, someday, someday I’ll find
Someday, someday, someday I’ll find
Someday, someday, someday I’ll find
