The Tantabus

[Verse 1 -Namii]
Another sleepless night. I hope that i’m the only one
My lovely sister’s light doesn’t show without a glowing sun
Wished for ages, praying that she played a prank and it’d be over
Waited for a thousand years, the pain of guilt still inching closer

[Verse 2 -Namii]
Distant loner - that’s how I feel lookin back at such
A violent temper tantrum. Would we be here if she hadn’t won?
Honestly I hadn’t even planned how I would handle what
Would happen if my sadness made me panic up the Tantabus

[Verse 3 - Blitzy]
Picture something moving on the edge of your peripheral
It's visceral, the feeling that you get when you've been drifting close
To darkness - harness the power of the Tantabus
Weaponize the void and atomize the light that banished us

[Verse 4 - Blitzy]
Or you could free me from this prison that you trapped me in
I'll do the work myself if it would mean that i’d come back again
I'll riffle through the dreams spreading viral like a pathogen
My wrath is an abyss, I hardly think that you could fathom it

[Chorus - Namii]
(As my)
Wrath came to close my woes
Keep me damaged and broke my home
Sees me cast off the throne
Please don't, Leave me sad
And alone they don't need me

[Chorus - Blitzy]
(As your)
Apathy shows my prose
Heeds to cast off your hopes
My soul, bleeds through
Massively grown my goals
Leave you sad and alone
I don't, need you

[Verse 5 - Blitzy]
You lie awake amidst the horrors that you hide away
It's time to face the light of day and bind what they would try to save
Princess, I must say you're mind is sick and that's the price to pay
I'm the violent angst you can't imprison with this type of hate

[Verse 6 - Blitzy]
Listen, I won't deign to take betrayal from you lying down
You likely sound delusional for casting off your nightmare crown
And i'm not bound by mortal coil forced to toil nightly now
Plotting for millennia to break these ponies pious bounds

[Namii]
Oooh, aaah, oooh, aaah (x2)

[Verse 7 - Blitzy]
The night you bound into your sister's room to take the throne
An ancient evil woke and seized control because your hate had grown
And basically? - I’m the apparition manifest
You think that you can handle me but Luna, you're no master yet

[Verse 8 - Blitzy]
This path will end with me escaping from this makeshift tomb
Your dreamscape left eviscerated, traitor, I won’t play the fool
I’ve hated you, you hide your face cause you’re afraid to face your coup
But would it change the narrative if I said i created you?

[Verse 9 -Namii]
Would you just listen? Get your thoughts out of my head
I need a little peace, you’re only haunting me instead
I did this to myself, I know you’re hungry as a parasite
Consuming endless dreams your powers multiply like parasprites

[Verse 10 -Namii]
Errant nights - I was hardly in control
And the reason that we’re even speaking largely isn’t prose
Cause you’re right - the other ponies guard me at the throne
But behind their eyes I feel that they harbor different goals

[Verse 11 -Blitzy]
Your spark of hope extinguishes, i’ll free myself and crush you all
Your fun is gone, the second that I leave this place your sun will fall
You suckers, all complacent with the way your goddess guided you
A lie which proved to be the end to what you all aspired to

[Verse 12 -Blitzy]
But i’m the fool to grasp the power i’ve accumulated?
Subrogating Luna ain’t the only way to use my hatred
I’ve been duly patient though so why do all these stupid pagans
Fuel my rage by fighting back against their newfound lunar patron
