Under the Moon

[Intro]
'Twas so much simpler at the start
Turning all that chaos into stone
But it all just fell apart
The moment that our flanks touched the throne

[Verse 1]
You were so beloved
I was so bemused
The life that we had known was gone so soon
The children laughed and played
Under your sunny days
Whilst everypony slept under the Moon

We had too much time to think
But hatred only rots when you're alone
I know now that love is the missing link
Betwixt a heart of gold and hearts of stone

[Verse 2]
Sure, we played our part
We also paid our debt
Twelve thousand months spent in the gloom
Can't you see we've changed?
Please don't run away
And leave us all alone under the Moon

We used to think:
"What good are second chances anyway
When you're still just second place?"
But at this point we'd be satisfied
If they would only stay
Rather than cringe from our voice
And hide from our face

[Instrumental interlude]

[Verse 3]
You're not justified!
You all are just afraid
As if we'd ever dream of gobbling you!
We didn't crave your fear
Just to be held dear
And celebrate the night under the Moon

[Outro]
