Edgar-Paul Bernis - Wanna Play

Auto-generated description: A hand holds a chess piece, specifically a rook, over a light background with the text WANNA PLAY and EDGAR-PAUL BERNIS beneath.

The first official release from Edgar, the very first artist to join otag, holds a special place in our history. This record features hauntingly beautiful vocals from Ana, an Argentinian singer Edgar encountered during his time in London. Sadly, we lost contact with her years ago—a true loss, as her voice added something truly special to the track. To this day, the release remains a fan favorite in our catalog. Despite our best efforts to persuade Edgar to revisit this style, he has largely stepped away from producing pop music. Still, one can’t help but wonder—what does the future hold for him?

Lyrics

I go to pavilions at dawn
But I wait until you’re gone
I see my future foregone
You’re my little black swan

What if I gave you everything
Kiss your feet and let you sting?
Take my head just for a swing
I’ll wear the leash, I’ll wear the ring
Can you hear my paws?
They scratch through the flaws
I’m only here because
You’re my little black swan

‘Cause all desire is spent when I can’t see you
‘Cause all it does is deviate the truth

I just wanna be for you
I just wanna be for you
I just wanna play with you (Just wanna play)
I just wanna play with you (Just wanna play)
I just, I just, I just
I just, I just, I just
I just, I just, I just
I just, I just, I just

I go to pavilions at dawn
But I wait until you’re gone
I see my future foregone
You’re my little black swan

I’m over meek, that’s why I look so tame
My clout is weak because it bares no shame
You kiss my cheek but you don’t know my name
My soul will leak into your cheeky game
Can’t you hear my claws?
They wreck who I was
I’m only here because
You’re my little black swan

‘Cause all desire is spent when I can’t see you
‘Cause all it does is deviate the truth

Walk through the night
Walk by your side
Pierce through your eyes
Pierce your disguise

I just wanna be for you
I just wanna be for you (OTAG)
I just wanna play with you (Just wanna play)
I just wanna play with you (Just wanna play)
I just, I just, I just
I just, I just, I just
I just, I just, I just
I just, I just, I just

Take my head just think
Take my head just think
