Awoken (atmosphere)

I’m sick of hurting, sick of thinking it’s all I do

I break souls around me, those spared are very few

But the bright sun is burning, and my sky shines ever blue

Something moved out the window. Odd, Ponyville was supposed to be a peaceful place without supposed ghouls and goblins.
