Rubicon |
| I lay down beside you: |
| I am a unicorn, you a virginal maid |
| And I come in laughing play |
| But, maybe, to be saved |
| Peer through the backcloth: |
| I am a character in the play |
| The words I slur are pre-ordained |
| We know them anyway |
| Don’t change your mind, don’t be a fickle friend; |
| Don’t change your mind, don’t pretend |
| To something false |
| Open the toy-box: |
| You are Pandora, I am the World |
| If you cross the stream, you never can return; |
| If you stay, you’ll surely burn |
| Don’t change your mind, don’t come all orchid eyes; |
| Don’t change your mind, don’t disguise the fear you feel |
| It’s real, and you must |
| Guard your castle well |
| For I am the lone wolf and the boar at bay |
| Grant me your Pax, you know we only live today |
| And on, and on, and into |
| «So long» |
| It takes so long to drown |
| It takes so very long to choke on the taste you’d spurned |
| If you cross the stream you never can return |
| If you stay you’ll surely burn |
