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. Hammill Peter Lyrics Rubicon Lyrics
