I've Used Up All My Happy Endings

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

I've used up all my happy endings,

Lost more than I've found.

Burned more than I have created,

Lost without a sound.

Don't think me a mere spectator,

Trapped by another's will.

My actions are my own, though that knowledge

To swallow is a bitter pill.

The seeds they planted quicken in my heart

The fire burns defenses down.

Harmony, you fucked me over,

Taught me wrong on purpose - now I'm drowning

I've used up all my happy endings,

Lost more than I've found.

Burned more than I have created,

Lost without a sound.

I want to believe your majesty

Is more than mirrors and smoke

But how can I make that leap, when I've seen

You the day your composure broke?

The night sky blazed with the noonday sun

The pony I called father, burned to ash

And as you hid that smoking gun,

My memories left in a magical flash.

I've used up all my happy endings,

Lost more than I've found.

Burned more than I have created,

Lost without a sound.

One day, I know, the fire started

The day I saw you burn him will consume me.

But the day that happens,

I swear I'll take you with me...

And on that day the Elements failed to rise

Your death, so sweetly came to be

I never guessed the price I'd pay

For what it's worth, it was only destiny.

I've used up all my happy endings,

Lost more than I've found.

Burned more than I have created,

Lost without a sound.

I've used up all my happy endings,

Lost more than I've found.

Burned more than I have created,

Lost without a sound.
