Verse 1: Deep in this forest, where shadows reside, A fading memory flashed across my mind Wet, cold, and alone, just a pup without a home As I shivered and cried from being left behind
But then, gentle hands, a touch that calmed my fright Calypso found me and cradled me in my sleep She gave me a home, a haven full of light And wiped my tears with a promise to keep
Chorus 1: Was she my savior, my guiding light? Guiding me from darkness, setting things right? Calypso, my mentor, with whom I can confide Disconnected from the world, but forever by her side
Verse 2: Within her cavern’s depths, time etched in stone As she raised me with her magic and her care She spun tales of darkness, of you and your friends' cruel reign With creatures abandoned and lands left in despair
Years bled together, under her watchful eyes Muscles honed, fangs bared, trained to make things right But doubt began to creep inside of dreams I couldn't realize A gnawing emptiness, a whisper in my ears and mind
Chorus 2: Was she my savior, or a twisted con? Were her crystal visions just a scheme all along? Calypso's teachings, they're clouding up my mind Disconnected from the truth, a reality I left behind
Bridge: Her whispers echoed, my memories unclear Was I her son, or just a weapon forged in her pain? My mind’s been damaged, my heart beyond repair Now I can't tell what's real or fake, am I going insane?
[The Mane Six] (harmonic in the background): There's more to this story, you don't have to face this alone Let go of your anger, Odium, and let your heart unfold
Forgiveness whispers, lost in raging scorn How can I mend the world when I'm too broken and torn?
Verse 3: Now a full-grown wolf, fangs gleaming in the light With my staff clutched my claw, a burden held tight Calypso’s pale whispers, a final goodbye A chilling scream piercing through the darkened sky
Grief, cold and heavy, a weight buried in my chest, Her final words echoed, a haunted plea: “Forgive me, son, and make me proud.” her voice in pain from her final rest, But doubts linger in shadows as I made my leave
Leaving behind the cave, I ventured alone Calypso's mission, a fire in my eyes A world stretched before me, vast and unknown But embers of truth, flickered with hidden lies
Chorus 3: Was she my savior, or a monster in disguise? My life was all a lie, beneath tear-stained eyes Lost in the darkness, a promise now betrayed Disconnected from myself, a burden I’ve made

Thanks. It's actually a tragic backstory and inner struggle song for a certain character I've created.
