Eb Bbm7
I am a unicorn, you a virginal maid,
Cm Ebm
and I come in laughing play
Ebm Fm Ebm Dbm Eb
but, maybe, to be saved.
Eb Bbm7
I am a character in the play.
Cm Ebm
The words I slur are pre-ordained,
Ebm Fm Ebm Dbm Eb
we know them anyway.
Db B
Don't change your mind, don't be a fickle friend
Db Ebm
don't change your mind, don't pretend
Dbm Cm
to something false.
Eb Bbm7
You are Pandora, I am the World.
Cm Ebm
If you cross the stream, you never can return
Ebm Fm Ebm Dbm Eb
If you stay, you'll surely burn.
(instrumental verse)
Db B
Don't change your mind, don't come all orchid eyes
Db Ebm Dbm Cm
don't change your mind, don't disguise the fear you feel,
Cm Bbm Eb
it's real, and you must
Bbm7
guard your castle well,
Eb Bbm7
for I am the lone wolf and the boar at bay.
Cm Ebm
Grant me your Pax, you know we only live today,
Ebm Dbm Cm Bbm
and on, and on, and into
Eb Bbm7
"So long"
Eb
It takes so long to drown,
Bbm7 Cm
it takes so very long to choke on the taste you'd spurned.
Ebm
If you cross the stream you never can return,
Ebm Fm Ebm Dbm Eb
If you stay you'll surely burn.
Ebm Fm Ebm Dbm Eb
If you stay you'll surely burn.
Ebm Fm Ebm Dbm Cm
If you stay you'll surely burn.
