Lullaby for a Knight (Magpie) - Lyrics

Cadance: Here in the darkness I wait all alone
How can they be fooled this way?
My heart breaks in two, being without you
The hope in my soul fades away
But into the stillness I send you my plea
Don't be fooled by her lovely face
For though it's like mine, so gentle and kind
She wears it to bring me disgrace

Once did a pony spread love where she went
But longed for a love of her own
Then he gave her reason to celebrate life
She knew that her heart finally found a home
So blinded by love
she saw not the signs of her doom that was sure to befall
And a selfish Queen cast her out of his life
In hopes to use evil to conquer them all

Oh Shining Armor dear love of my life
Don't fall for her smile and grace
Find me below you awaiting your call
Searching for hours and days
Please know I love you and I will not stop
Until I am safe with you there
We'll conquer her darkness and find true love's light
protection for each colt and mare

Soon did that pony realize her mistake
Too late trapped in Canterlot's mines
Queen Chrysalis had all the love she could want
She cackled, "You will not escape here in time."
The wedding she dreamed,
Now cast into darkness
The plot of that Changling's design
And no magic spell could escape this dark place
She'd have to watch her Shining Armor's decline

Oh Shining Armor dear love of my life
Don't fall for her smile and grace
Find me below you awaiting your call
Searching for hours and days
Please know I love you and I will not stop
Until I am safe with you there
We'll conquer her darkness and find true love's light
Protection for each colt and mare
Being alone is more than I can bear

The danger before me
Fearful and unknown
I never imagined I'd face them all alone
May these endless caverns
Lead me out at last
I need you, I miss you
I'm frightened and outcast
Keep everypony safe tonight
And keep your protection strong and bright
I'll follow my love like a guiding light
And someday soon I'll be with you
And make things right
Soon. Soon. Soon.
