Corona, Corona
Corona, Corana
Why do you scare us so?
Scare so many of us; why?
Corana, Corana
I have heard that name before
Seen smoke; drained the bottle
Corona, Corona
I have met the big c
Like a rock; hitting hard
Corona; Corona
I have met the man in green
He cut the c away
Corona, Corona
You are more like water
Drops planting seeds
Corona, Corona
I met the man in white
He won’t test me
Corona, Corona
Why won’t he let me know
Corona, are you there; inside me?
Corona, Corona
I cough your name out oud
Don’t let my library burn
Corona, Corona
The man in black
Corona; make him wait
Corona, Corona
You scare me; so
Cause I don’t know
Corona, Corona
The man in green
Can’t cut you out
Corona, Corona
I don’t know you
I don’t whom you choose
Corona, Corana
You scare me
You scare us
Corona, Corona
The man in blue
Don’t let me meet him; in ICU
Corona, Corona
That black suit
Don’t let me wear it
Corona, Corona
You have a name
I could whisper; with affection
Corona, Corona
I could whisper that
But i won’t
Corona, Corana
There is a man going round taking names
Leaving our hearts in vain
Corona, Corona
You have taken names
But names isn’t just names
Corona, Corona
It might be the name of someone you loved
It might be the name of someone you love
Corona, Corona
You might take names
I won’t give you mine; freely
Corona, Corona
I have sought after names
I have vanted to know; names
Corona, Corona
Name not taken, but given
That’s different
Corona, Corona
I know yours; Corona
Go to sleep; Corona
Corona, Corona
