there are actually so many alliterations in Next to Normal once you start looking for them, and some of them come in really clever patterns! Like:
are you bleeding are you waiting / are you wishing / are you wanting are you bruised / are you broken are you hurting / are you healing / are you hoping you square all the corners I straighten the curves I am flame and I am fire I am destruction, decay, and desire I'll hurt you, I'll heal you they've cut away the cancer but forgot to fill the hole they moved me from your memory I'm still there in your soul all the manic magic days and the dark depressing nights the sensation that you're screaming, but you never make a sound or the feeling that you're falling, but you never hit the ground
those are my favourite ones, but these also stick out I think:
is cloudy my new clear is my brain reborn or is it wrecked in freedom or in fear she was wicked and wired I am more than memory, I am what might be, I am mystery I'll tell you the truth if you let me try sear the soul and leave a scar maybe I've lost it at last / maybe my last lucid moment has passed you don't hear his doubts / or his debts or disease can you keep the cup from tipping all the while the wild wind blows
and I'm sure there are way more that I'm not thinking of
