Lyrics to Unicorn

As the shadows of the day grew too long

I could see that mine was missing

It was gone

And the part of me that kept happiness

Grew so panicked

That I could not let it rest

All that I could hear was

“Hello back

We’ll take you among us

But the seeds of mercy

Will travel no more”

Hello back

We’ll take you among us

But the seeds of mercy

Will travel no more"

They’ll travel no more

So I went into the dark shadow realm

All the shadows playing right beneath my eyes

And I searched for the face I knew oh so well

(It was out of sight)

Until I stumbled on it’s eyes of red and white

All that I could hear was…

“Hello back

We’ll take you among us

But the seeds of mercy

Will travel no more

Hello back

We’ll take you among us

But the seeds of mercy

Will travel no more”

So I looked at him and I asked him why

“Why did you have to leave me in half?”

And he answered me

With a cold, low voice of my own

“It was you who drove me to grow apart”

As blank knowledge

Sank deep beneath my skin

I knew that the truth

Was breathing in him

And I realized, that of course

I wasn’t a unicorn

I was just a mere horse

We infused into each other

The shadows in me burned as I learned

“Great, great battles are ahead”

He said

And we returned…
