Various Artists - Under the Moon lyrics

[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] Under the Moon
