//------------------------------// // Chapter 6: A New Rock Show // Story: My Week In Equestria // by Starlight_Stories //------------------------------// I climbed up to the stage, yet again, but this time for a new type of show. I’ll call it “The New Rock Show.” I know that it’s terrible name wise, but it was all I could think of. I got to the top of the Mountain around 7:00 PM, grabbed my guitar called, “ The Guitar of Darkness,” and began. “(Intro riff) Out of the silent planet. Out of the silent planet we are. (x4)
Withered hands, withered bodies begging for salvation.
Deserted by the hand of gods of their own creation.
Nations cry underneath decaying skies above.
You are guilty, the punishment is death for all who live.
The punishment is death for all who live.
Out of the silent planet, dreams of desolation.
Out of the silent planet, come the demons of creation.
Out of the silent planet, dreams of desolation.
Out of the silent planet, come the demons of creation. The killing fields, the grinding wheels crushed by equilibrium.
Separate lives no more disguise, no more second chances.
Haggard wisdom spitting out the bitter taste of hate.
I accuse you, before you know the crime it's all to late.
Before you know the crime it's all too late.
Out of the silent planet, dreams of desolation.
Out of the silent planet, come the demons of creation.
Out of the silent planet, dreams of desolation.
Out of the silent planet, come the demons of creation. (Short Guitar Riff) Out of the silent planet. Out of the silent planet we are.(x2 and Guitar Solos)
Out of the silent planet, dreams of desolation.
Out of the silent planet, come the demons of creation.
Out of the silent planet, dreams of desolation.
Out of the silent planet, come the demons of creation. (Short Guitar Riff) Out of the silent planet. Out of the silent planet we are. (x6 and hold last word for 15 seconds) ” I sang out and played on “The Guitar of Darkness.” I walked forwards, into the light, and got a lot of hooves clopping, and cheering. Walked up to the newest microphone I put in, the Announcer Mic, and said “That one isn’t my song, that was ‘Out of The Silent Planet, by Iron Maiden, covered by … well, me. Well, the same group, Iron Maiden, made this next one; it’s called ‘The Thin Line Between Love and Hate.’ I hope ya’ll enjoy it.” I said as I began the next Intro Riff. “(Intro Riff) When a person turns to wrong.
Is it a want to be, belong?
Part of things at any cost.
At what price a life is lost.
At what point do we begin.
Fighter spirit a will to win, But what makes a man decide.
Take the wrong or righteous road.
There's a thin line between love and hate.
Wider divide that you can see between good and bad.
There's a grey place between black and white,
But everyone does have the right to
choose the path that he takes.
We all like to put the blame
on society these things,
But what kind of good or bad.
A new generation brings.
Sometimes takes just more than that.
To survive be good at heart.
There is evil in some of us.
No matter what will never change.
I will hope
My soul will fly.
So I will live forever. My heart will die.
My soul will fly,
And I will live forever.(Guitar Solo) Just a few small tears between
someone happy and one sad.
Just a thin line drawn between
being a genius or insane.
At what age begin to learn
of which way out we will turn.
There's a long and winding road,
And the trail is there to burn.
There's a thin line between love and hate. Wider divide that you can see between good and bad.
There's a grey place between black and white
But everyone does have the right to
choose the path that he takes.(Guitar Solo) I will hope.
My soul will fly.
So I will live forever. My heart will die. My soul will fly, And I will live forever.(x2 and Guitar Riff + Solos…Slower Riff & Quick Solos)
The thin line between love and hate; (Solos + Riff) the thin line between love and hate. (Fade away with muttering ‘Oh, you fucking missed it heh heh heh’)” I let the lights fade before walking to the Announcer Mic. I received millions, no, billions of cheering voices and clopping hooves. I waited till the cheering stopped, and then I said into the mic “Well, that went better than I thought. I’m gonna change my Guitar real quick, and then I’ll play a 9 minute instrumental. Which is basically a song with no lyrics/ words. It’s called Suicide & Redemption.” After nine minutes and a few solos, I received a billion plus cheering voices, and clopping hooves. I walked up to the mic and said, “That was Suicide & Redemption. This next song is called ‘Brave New World’ by Iron Maiden as well. Hope ya’ll like it.” I backed away from the mic to the singers microphone. “(Short Intro) Dying swans, twisted wings.
Beauty not needed here.
Lost my love, lost my life.
In this garden of fear.
I have seen many things.
In a lifetime alone.
Mother love is no more.
Bring this savage back home.
Wilderness, house of pain.
Makes no sense of it all.
Close this mind, dull this brain.
Messiah before his fall.
What you see is not real.
Those who know will not tell.
All is lost, sold your soul.
To this brave new world.
A brave new world, in a brave new world.
A brave new world, in a brave new world.
In a brave new world, a brave new world.
In a brave new world, a brave new world.
Dragon kings, dying queens.
Where is salvation now.
Lost my life, lost my dreams.
Rip the bones from my flesh.
Silent screams, laughing here.
Dying to tell you the truth
.You are planned and you are damned.
In this brave new world.

A brave new world, in a brave new world.
A brave new world, in a brave new world.
In a brave new world, a brave new world.
In a brave new world, a brave new world. (Solos and Riff + Outro) A brave new world, in a brave new world.
A brave new world, in a brave new world.
In a brave new world, a brave new world.
In a brave new world, a brave new world. Dying swans, twisted wings. Bring this savage back home. (Cutout)” I let the lights fade out into darkness. I walked up to the mic, let the cheering die down, then I began. “Well, I have one song left, and possibly the last. This is Fade Away by Black Heart Progression.” I stepped back, I let the old key piano rise, and began. “(Slow Piano Intro) Oh-oh-oh. Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh. Oh-ho-oh-oh… Through this land of tragedy; I try to find my way, and in this town of misery; I search for you. Now, we walk away, to the last of the day…((I slipped over my guitar and began again (Guitar Riff))) Oh-oh-oh. Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh. Oh-ho-oh-oh… And in this world, there were only memories, of how we could get through. There was just a way to see, and now we’ve lost way, in the land of the day. (Guitar and Piano Solo) And in this life, how will they remember me, will they see the truth, or will they just lose everything? Now, it fades away, to the end of the day… (Piano and Guitar Outro)” I finished, and I received silence, because they got the message I made. I would not return after I help them, I would die in battle. I stayed on the seat, not letting the Piano lower back into the stage. I pulled off the guitar and set it on the rack that rolled to the piano. I just stayed where I was, but I knew that I am more likely not accepted in Ponyville anymore, so there would be no use of going. I then heard crying from the front of the stage, not one person or pony, but six. I made them all cry… I can’t go back because I made them cry, I will accept my fate. I will die saving more worlds before my life can be saved. I grabbed a Moon-Glowing-Slivery Guitar, and began another Aerosmith song. Most people know it; it’s called Dream on. “(Guitar Intro/Riff) Every time that I look in the mirror, all these lines, and my face getting’ clearer. The past is gone; it went back like dust to dawn, isn’t that the way, everybody’s got the dues in life to pay. Hey-ah I know, nobody knows, where it comes and where it goes. I know, everybody sins, but you got to lose, to know how to win… Half my life is in books, written pages; Lived and learned from fools and from sages. You know its true-oh. All the things come back to you. Sing-a with me, sing for the year, sing for the laughter, sing for a tear. Sing-a with me, if it’s just for today, maybe tomorrow, the good-a lord will take you away-hey… (Guitar Riff/Solo) Hey-ah Sing with me, sing for the year, sing for the laughter, sing for a tear. Sing-a with me, if it’s just for today, maybe tomorrow, the good-a lord will take away-hey-ah. (Short Solo) Uh-Dream on. Dream on. Dream on. Dream until your dream comes true-oh. (Another Short Solo) Dream on. Dream on. Dream on. Dream until your dream comes true. (Short Solo Again) Dream on. Dream on. Dream on. Dream on. (High Pitch) Dream on. Dream on. Dream on. Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah… (Normal Pitch) Sing with me, sing for the year, sing for the laughter, sing for a tear. Sing-a with me, if it’s just for today, maybe tomorrow, the good-a lord will take you away. Sing-a with me, sing for the year, sing for the laughter, sing for a tear-ah. Sing-a with me, if it’s just for today, maybe tomorrow, the good-a lord will take you away-hey. (Huge Chinese Gong and Outro)” I finished, with no cheering, even though the amps and microphone were on. I left the stage lights on as I walked around on the stage. I paced the entire stage, I noticed the mane six at the front of the stage, and they thought I didn’t, but I did. I didn’t do anything about it though, I just paced around, and then I eventually turned on some music. Which was orchestral music. If you’ve ever played the game or heard the theme and soundtrack of Medal of Honor: Frontline, Vanguard, and Airborne, then you know what I was listening to. I got tired of pacing and I went to the center of the stage, I lied down, and fell asleep.
