I believe this song is ultimately about a relationship between another party. In this song, the other party is personified. This "person" in actuality treats the protagonist like crap, but the relationship between the protagonist and the other party still manages to stay intact due to the fantasy, which is where "Wonderland" takes shape. The guide to Wonderland is the White Rabbit. Due to the White Rabbit, the protagonist is saved from the hell that is in "real life" (Your magic white rabbit/your white room straight-jacket). Eventually the fantasy will be recognized as a fraud, which is where the line "your magic white rabbit has left its writing on the wall" comes into play. Traditionally, "writing on the wall" signifies doom. The doom in this story happens to both "Wonderland" and the real world relationship. The fantasy hits "a dead end" and there is no where to go but back up the hole. The protagonist, now set in the real world for good, can see through the fantasy, and view the problems for the first time. As he views the problems, he knows that he must disconnect himself, so he can "get what he deserves"
I don't necessarily believe it's about a relationship with another person based on a fantasy, I think it's about a relationship based on cocaine, and since White Rabbit is another term for cocaine, they took that term and turned it into an amazing, metaphoric song circling around Alice in Wonderland. The relationship with the other person, I would guess a woman, and thier dependancy on cocaine has driven them to a "dead end road," and he wants to turn around and get what he deserves without the drug. The band has admitted to having issues with cocaine, and the...

The band has admitted to having issues with cocaine, and the video looks like a fateful meeting with a coke don, so it seems quite logical.
