Essence of the Gods

Fire in the heartland, terror driving ponies far

All denied by one willing to steer astray the raft

What bullshit is this? How can you justify your wrath?

Better 'tis by far that you take the game and throw.

Bridge

Twinkle, twinkle, Twilight Star. We've been watching you thus far.

Don't you sleep, don't you peep. Lest we take your soul to keep.

Should your vigilance go stray, we'll destroy you - best obey.

Chorus

A midsummer's nightmare, an affront to all the gods

May they judge us fairly as we throw them to the dogs

Burn the alicorns in fact, clip their wings, let them see

As their paradise falls to my will with ease!

Verse 2

Violent night, hallowed night

Finally the time is right

Blade takes action to cut the harpstrings

Through the stillness their cries do ring

For the Matriarch!

For the Matriarch. Amen.

Bridge

Never fret, dear Luna. I haven't left you out.

I'll do you last and fill my glass with every single shout!

Chorus

A midsummer's nightmare, an effigy of all the gods

May they judge us well as we throw them to the dogs

Burn the alicorns in fact, clip their wings, let them see

As their paradise falls to my will with ease!

Verse 3

The graveyards resound with the cries of the damned

Deemed unfit for your light

Loyal to Luna, they paid for their love

With sacrifice, incite.

Bridge

If Shining goes to spread justice today,

He'd better secure his wife.

If Cadance is left in her palace today,

She'll surely lose her life.

We are the Night. We are the Mares.

We break the foundation, catch you unawares.

Tonight's the night we end your life

Dear princess!

Chorus

A midsummer's nightmare, heresy to all the gods

To Tartarus with their judgements as we throw them to the dogs

Burn the alicorns in fact, clip their wings, let them see

As their paradise falls to my will with ease!

Outro

And "Celly", oh rue, I'm coming for you.

To settle accounts and debts due.
