Back to the beginning
This oppressive hierarchy
I am the Queen of the Night, Celestia
How dare you relegate me?
Living in the shadow
Your disciples harmony
Your apathy makes you weak, my sister
My army stands to agree
(So open your eyes)
BOW DOWN--
I'm darker than I have ever been
It's still within
RISE UP--
No matter how long I have to wait that sun will fall
And this nightmare will re-install
Overdrive
On earth I wait in silence
Hesitation in your decree
That propaganda you push
Is purported divinity
The time it will ascend
To my supremacy
Raised hooves of the Republic
Goodnight eternally
(So open your eyes)
BOW DOWN--
I'm darker than I have ever been
It's still within
RISE UP--
No matter how long I have to wait that sun will fall
And this nightmare will re-install
Overdrive
Sister
I've been thinking
(disjointed chanting of "Nightmare")
All that power
You squandered
How could you mislead them so?
Never again
The time has come for you to learn your place
This heart of darkness, the last time you'll face
Give wake to these quakes from tongue to horn
And show these poor foals, moonlight's scorn
