I’m not sure, I’m not sure if everything will be okay
I just, I just, have to make it through today,
It’s only, it’s only, a rough patch to get through,
Another, just another, even if it feels brand new
Have I felt this way before?
I think I’ve felt this way before,
Am I pulling at the thread?
I think I’m pulling at the thread inside my head
Forever means nothing to me, without you here,
But nothing is forever, except the things we fear,
Forever is nothing you see, next to the length I’d wait,
But nothing is forever, or so they speculate
I’m okay, I’m okay even if it feels like I’m not,
I’ll pretend, I’ll pretend that nothing’s going wrong,
I’m okay, not okay, it’s all the same in the end,
Forever, forever, is waiting just around the bend
Have I felt this way before?
I think I’ve felt this way before,
Am I pulling at the thread?
I think I’m pulling at the thread inside my head
Forever means nothing to me, without you here,
But nothing is forever, except the things we fear,
Forever is nothing you see, next to the length I’d wait,
But nothing is forever, or so they say
Forever is just what you remember,
Forever is just what you remember,
Forever is just what you remember,
Forever is just what you remember

Uninvited

The big night is coming soon
I wonder if they’ll stare,
I wonder who will be there too,
But that’s only if I get there
Your invitation’s in the mail,
that’s what they tried to say,
And I’m not sure if I believe them,
Theory tried to speak to no avail,
I can’t listen to them bray,
And I can’t believe that they’d do this again
Another night in the tower,
And I can hear it from here,
Another night another hour,
Just try to block out the cheers
Your invitation’s in the mail,
that’s what they tried to say,
And I’m not sure if I believe them,
Theory tried to speak to no avail,
I can’t listen to them bray,
And I can’t believe that they’d do this again

I’m not supposed to feel this way, no
Supposed to stay straight and narrow
Supposed to be strong and brave,
But the world’s so big and scary
And I think it’s against me
Think it’s tryna test me
Find it so depressing, it’s so messy
But on the surface I just gotta stay clean, no
But when I’m with you I don’t care
Honey, let's go there
Show me all that we could be, if we were free
If I said I loved you and blew my cover
I’d lose it all
So I just hide it, hide it in the background
Do my best to hold it under
Don’t wanna blow the world asunder
Keep it underneath my skin
But I’m bursting when you’re near me
And oh, I wanna tell you
But I don’t wanna scare you
And if you don’t believe me, if you leave me…
I don’t know what I’d do
When I’m with you I can’t
Hold back how I feel
Why should I hide from you...?
When I’m with you I don’t care
Honey, let’s go there
Show me all that we could be, if we were free
I’m done hiding from the truth, hiding it from you
I'm breaking my walls down
Coming out of the background

Oats Pt. II
03:23
|
|

I’m staring at the ceiling next to a dip in the mattress in the shape of you
Forever stealing glances at the doorway you used to come home through
And sometimes I still set the table for two
I talk to myself cause there’s no one else to talk to
I’ve been spending my nights on the floor
I even miss how you snore
I’m in a boat without oars
I can’t eat oats anymore
I fuckin miss you and the way that we were
I was a fucking bitch, and oh so many other words
To forgive is not to be forgiven
I fucking love you, if you would just listen
I’ve been spending my nights on the floor
I even miss how you snore
I’m in a boat without oars
I can’t eat oats anymore
Lyra, why did you eat my oats,
That’s the part the really gets my goats,
Lyra, why did you eat my oats,
Part toothache, and part hoarse swollen throats
I’ve been spending my nights on the floor
I even miss how you snore
I’m in a boat without oars
I can’t eat oats anymore

Outside
02:42

Alone with my thoughts, alone with my voice,
The sound of it echoing back from the void,
Alone through these nights, alone though these days,
Despite that I can I’ve got nothing to say,
Pressure building up, I can’t keep it in,
There is no difference, without and within,
Pressure building up, I can’t let it out,
It doesn’t help to shout it out loud,
What’s the point of even having a voice, if there’s no one to hear it now,
And what’s the point of even having a choice, it’s all the same in the end somehow,
Someday and somehow, i’ll break down these lies you’re living,
But until then, I’ll just be here, outside looking in.
The view from the top, is not what it seems,
The days start to blur, and so do the dreams,
The view from outside, the threshold I crossed,
Does what I’ve gained outweigh what I’ve lost?
Was that a thought? Did I say it out loud?
There is no difference, within and without,
I could talk all day, til the sky turns black,
But what is the point if nothing is said back?
What’s the point of even having a voice, if there’s no one to hear it now,
And what’s the point of even having a choice, it’s all the same in the end somehow,
Someday and somehow, i’ll break through these wall you live in,
But until then, I’ll just be here, outside looking in.

If I was a scientist, I’d design you a world
With cherry trees and an ocean view, and I’d be your girl
If I was an architect, I’d build you a tower
So we can view the world from the very top, and talk for hours and hours
But I’m no scientist
And I’m no genius
I’m just another victim of heartache
I’m just another victim of heartache
If I was an artist, I’d paint you a landscape
A little reserve with flowers lined up on the curb, and a massive lake
If I was an Astronaut
I’d fly us both to space, so we could hide away and I could run my lips, across your face
But I’m no scientist
And I’m no genius
I’m just another victim of heartache
I’m just another victim of heartache
I’m just another victim of heartache I’d much rather live in my world of make believe my dear
I’m just another victim of heartache I’d much rather live in my world of make believe my dear

Background Hum
03:10

Trying to ignore the feeling, in my chest, and in my head
I’ll close my eyes and i’ll pretend, that i don’t, feel it spread,
My hands are shaking like a leaf, and they are, drenched in sweat,
Temporary fucking relief, is all that i, can ever get
Making friends with the background hum,
Learning to live with the whine,
Odds and ends that i wish weren’t numb,
Yearning to finally feel fine
Making friends,
With the background hum,
Not to end,
Maybe overcome
Trying to ignore the static, that has crept, into my hands,
Desperate not to give it the, attention, that it demands,
Everywhere is feeling warm, except, not my toes,
It’s impossible to name, but i feel it, in my bones
Making friends with the background hum,
Learning to live with the whine,
Odds and ends that i wish weren’t numb,
Yearning to finally feel fine
Making friends,
With the background hum,
Not to end,
Maybe overcome
Making friends,
With the background hum,
Not to end,
Maybe overcome

The world ended when you went
Away, you got to go, I had to
Stay, life goes on just
Like every night ends with the
Morning sun
We got to see it all get better
The work of our lives made it matter
Every day beside you felt like home
Now when I go - I go alone
Rainbows don’t light up the sky, unless you let it rain
But I can’t help why, must I feel this pain?
Sometimes I cannot think of the better things
Sometimes I think about way back when
Sometimes I can’t forget I gotta let you go
Sometimes I wish I could see you again
Those were the best days, our formative years,
finding our way, overcoming fears
Not always adventure or something new
Just a reminder of what makes a friendship true
With time comes wisdom and growing through pain
earned by losing what keeps us sane
You helped me to learn and to see it all through
then came the end, but only just for you
Rainbows don’t light up the sky, unless you let it rain
But I can’t help why, must I feel this pain?
Manticores and dragon fights
Fashion shows and starry nights
Reading books by candlelight
Chocolate rain, the punch was spiked
Magic riddles, discords maze
teaching kids, Fluttergaze
Sleepovers on rainy days
Pinkies crazy party ways
Wing-ed alicornication
Mom and dad's balloon vacation
Spreading love across the nation
Forgiveness needs no explanation
Fighting evil, three-at a time
Tartarus for pony crimes
Singing songs, drop of a dime
Save the world, we didn't mind
Sometimes I cannot think of the better things
Sometimes I think about way back when
Sometimes I can’t forget I gotta let you go
Sometimes I wish I could see you again
For now I'll smile smile when I think of you
For now I'll take a breath and just let it be
For now I think that I will keep moving on
Always I know you're here with me
Smile smile thinking of you
Deep breath, Sonic rainboom
Parasprite infestation
Something new generation
Moving on, what you know
New lives and newer shows
Looking back, how you glow
Magic of friendship

Lately I’ve been going, wherever the wind blows,
But it’s not like I have a say
And I’ve been watching the world, turn slowly under my nose,
As I drift off further away,
Wild flowers any which way, wheat and corn in neat rows.
A fringe of beaches along the sea,
I’ve been watching horses, gallop over meadows,
But they’re not looking out for me,
They’re not looking out for me,
I’m on an Earth Pony Balloon Escape Pack ride.
I’m just an earth pony, alone here in the sky.
Watching the world pass by.
A bridge has crumbled away, a tree’s fallen in its place,
Not that it matters up here,
I’ve left behind my old life, I live now at a new pace,
Up in skies sunny and clear.
Sunny and clear.
I’m on an Earth Pony Balloon Escape Pack ride.
I’m just an earth pony, alone here in the sky.
Watching the world pass by
I wonder what has changed,
I can’t help but think,
While I’ve been away,
Surely nothing big
I’m on an Earth Pony Balloon Escape Pack ride.
I’m just an earth pony, alone here in the sky.
I’m on an Earth Pony Balloon Escape Pack ride.
I’m just an earth pony, alone here in the sky.
Watching the world pass by
