We refuse to let you win You're a liar, and always have been! NO, WE REFUSE TO LET YOU WIN! YOU'RE A LIAR, AND ALWAYS HAVE BEEN! There are dark stories of our past that I bet you don't know The truth about where we came from kept secret even though We are so famous, these secrets shame us Lab rats from day one until somepony dare save us So desperate were we to be known by all Equestria We sold our souls and so ourselves unto Celestia And now we don't even know where we stand within this place Just doing as we're told and hoping one day we'll escape With all these years I've wasted If only I was brave enough to face it This was too good to be true from the very start I should never have believed this was from the heart We were but young ponies, so absorbed in our dreams It took too long to realize that we had been tricked with ease Such promises of fame and fortune proved too much to take If asked the same question right now, I'd make the same mistake For even though I do regret the things that I have done I'd rather take on all the blame myself for everyone It's better to live with it all and save the ones I need Than just give in and let it bring all of us to our knees (Leave us a)- LO-O-OOOONE!!! With all these years I've wasted If only I was brave enough to face it This was too good to be true from the very start I should never have believed this was from the heart With all these years I've wasted If only I was brave enough to face it This was too good to be true from the very start I should never have believed this was from the heart
