DIAMONDS
I was born a unicorn
I missed the Ark but I could've sworn you'd wait for me

GINGER
I was born a unicorn
I could have sworn you believed in me
Then how come all the other Unicorns are dead?

DIAMONDS
Put your crystals under my pillow

GINGER
Send your epistle to my bedfellows

DIAMONDS
If I stop believing in you

GINGER
If you stop believing in me

DIAMONDS
If I stop believing in you

GINGER
If you stop believing in me

We're the Unicorns
We're more than horses
We're the unicorns
And we're people too!

    General Comment:Missing verse:

    NICK: We're never gonna stop!
    ALDEN: I think I wanna stop!
    NICK: We want one-ups!
    ALDEN: I don't care; I'll do push-ups! (I think)
    NICK: I write the songs!
    ALDEN: I write the songs!
    NICK: You say I'm doing it wrong!
    ALDEN: You are doing it wrong!

    General Comment:I agree; ths is meant to be their theme song. But also a song about relationships or a theory of why Unicorns can't be found.

    General Comment:I think this song is about a guy who was a struggling magician trying to make it, he wanted to be like Houdini but just wasn't good enough. "I was born a Unicorn" he was born with special magic powers "missed the ark" he was born at a time when magicians weren't "the thing" anymore. "could've sworn you believed in me" is how he thought people believed in his magic, but they all knew it was fake.
    "We're the Unicorns, we're more than horses" he's more than an illusionist, he's real... lolol....
    People that try to find deeper meanings in this song, have no brain... Sorry... but this is about being a unicorn.... THEIR BAND NAME IS THE UNICORNS! THIS IS LIKE... THEIR FUCKING THEME SONG! god. damn.

    like "i write the songs! i write the songs! you say i'm doing it wrong....you are doing it wrong"
    and "they're there, we agree, they're there, alive and well"

    General Comment:this song is about someone who feels they were the black sheep of the family, and were rejected at most family reunions.
    In the end they shoot themself in the mouth and end the cruelness.
