Milk Carton Unicorn

By Zahgurim

With crystal grace
Love embraced
These rare entities
True in existance
Pure innocense
Drinking from the falls and streams
It's no dream

The red bull came
The red bull went
Stole what is real
Without any consent
Drove beauty deep
Deep into the sea
The sea of lost light
Where they could never be
Or even reunite

Gather all wizards
Gather all fairies
Gather all your paper
It gets quite scary
Without their guiding light
We are afraid of the dark
We can't shed enough tears
With our never ending fears

Open up your ears

The red bull came
The red bull went
Stole what is real
Without any consent
Drove beauty deep
Deep into the sea
The sea of lost light
Where they could never be
Or even reunite

Fight
Fight with your right
To protect your creation
For their salvation

Kill
Kill that bastard
That fucking bull
Don't let the sea get full

Charish
Charish the lost
Forget them never
Remember forever
And ever.

    I agree, enchanting is a good word for this. I liked the repetion, but the vulgarity taints it a little. Can't you say it differently? Hate can be beautiful, it really can.

    I kinda agree with you, here... the vulgarity is a bit off-putting for something that starts so majestically.
