Hello everyone, I don't think i have ever been more excited to finally upload a song... this song has been in progress for nearly THREE years!!! i wrote it a good while ago but was having some issues with it for the longest time. The amazing Fritzy https://www.youtube.com/user/FritzyBeat sang the chorus for me and blew me away with his amazing vocal work but the verses were tricky. In the end i ended up doing the verses myself. ^_^ i was pretty happy with how it all turned out, i hope you enjoy it as well.
The story is about Princess Luna and her moments just before succumbing to the temptation of the darkness and becoming Nightmare Moon. She feels blinded by the majesty that is Celestia, left in her shadow, and is feeling small, lost and abandoned. And this is the song that follows. ^_^
These are the lyrics:
i've travelled the world
tracing lines in the sand
reflecting the light
and all i miss
always walking backwards
before i knew how... to stand
Do mistakes define me?
Am i chained to this?
the challenges and consequence
i'm still looking for some common sense
and the giver of light takes another life
when is it too late to grow?
The sun burns away the innocence
A thousand crops lost to ignorance
The failed farmer, is a serial killer
We reap the seeds we sew
Why must the sun burn so bright?
i miss the cool, the shelter of the endless night
the stars have always been there for me
but the sun is always too bright to see
Just another day, lost in the desert
in the shadow of the sun all alone
Every step brings a new kinda pain
as i wander deeper into the shame
all hope drains from tomorrow
A trio of vultures form my halo
Take it all away, the sun, the light
the pain of living beneath your glare
its always far too bright
Slice by slice... You cut away
beneath your sun i live every day
Looking for escape and to break the mold
I need the darkness, i need the night so cold
why must you always burn so bright?
i miss the times before we'd always fight
Since the start you'd always been there for me
but now the darkness of night is all i see
Why must the sun burn so bright?
i miss the cool, the shelter of the endless night
the stars have always been there for me
but the sun is always too bright to see
Thank you so so so much for listening, i hope you enjoyed the song. I'm so excited i finally get to show you it. :D it feels like a dream to finally make this one live.
