Ponyphonic - The Moon Rises lyrics

Now the hour has come at last The soft and fading light Has crossed the west horizon And has bidden us goodnight And what a lovely night it is To walk a moonlit field To see the softer shades That are by starlight now revealed So why is it that now, When all is quiet and at rest When candles glow and all the world Is at its very best The ponies of Equestria Should lock themselves away To shun the moon and wait instead For Sister's sunny day? (In umbra Luna est) Am I so wrong to wish that they Would see things like I do? And am I so wrong to think That they might love me too? Why shouldn't they adore me? Is it not within my right? I'll not be overshadowed! Mine is not the lesser light! I've waited long enough now For them all to come around And though the Sun may plead and threaten, The Moon will stand her ground It comes to this at last: I will no longer yield the sky If they cannot love But one princess alone See, the Moon is rising She has come to claim the heavens for her own And all will know the wonder Of my dark and j**eled sky When all the world is wrapped In an eternal lullaby So say goodnight to this, The final setting of the sun, Tomorrow dawns in darkness; The nighttime has begun! (Nocte)
