My Little Lyric Book

I'm not great at this at all, but I figured I'd use a thread to post some of the lyrics I write from time to time.

 

They are seriously works in progress

 

This first post is a song that I'm still tweaking. It's a song from the perspective of Derpy singing to herself about Dinky.

 

Through Unguided Eyes

 

When I see you walk, prance and talk

Lively as the morning sun

I recognize how fortunate I am

That you're a fortunate one

 

Through unguided eyes I see

A strange new melody

My little filly growing strong

My little filly calling me on

 

You’re growing faster than I can keep pace

That’s the price of a child’s smiling face

As years go by I must let go

Of things so you may grow.

 

Through unguided eyes I see

A strange new melody

My little filly growing strong

My little filly calling me on

 

One day you’ll leave me

Another pony at your hip

Don’t mind my weeping

It’s just a changing friendship

 

Through unguided eyes I see

A strange new melody

My little filly growing strong

My little filly calling me on

 

I won’t always be there

My little filly grown so strong

A pony’s life’s a short affair

But keep on moving on

 

Through unguided eyes I’ll see

A strange new melody

My little filly growing strong

My little filly calling me on

 

For now, I’ll watch you grow

And you’ll always know

That I watch over you

With unguided eyes

 

It has a bit of an influence from "Look Through My Eyes" by Phil Collins

Thanks

 

I've never had a talent for writing music, but I have a smidgen of talent writing poems, so I thought it might be nice to share.

 

Maybe someone will find it nice and want to do some music to it, but that's a bit much to expect with as little experience as I have :P

 

IDK just having fun when I get into the mood to write something,

A song from Twilight's perspective regarding her insecurity about being a princess in her own right, sung to herself about Celestia.

 

Pale Reflection

 

The down is shed from new wings

Moving on to bigger things

What they’ll be I do not know.

But what fate will deign to sew

 

New wings learn to fly

New wings learn to fall

If I fail in what I try

Will you still hear my call

 

Moon and snow

The palest of reflection

I’ve got room to grow

Still ready for your direction

 

The cocoa wafts a splendid spell

Drinking in it’s home like smell

We used to sip this to cut the winter’s bite

My sappy heart misses that old ritual tonight

 

Teacher and student

The path was clear

Of your many lectures

I’d love to hear

 

I knew what was expected

I knew what was to see

Now, a fear unexpected

Of problems yet to be

 

Moon and snow

The palest of reflection

I’ve got room to grow

Still ready for your direction

 

I’ll praise your sister’s night once more

Ere I rest my head

I’ll shut tight again my castle door

And climb into my bed

 

Dream again of simpler times

Of times of books and pens

A time of nursery rhymes

So much simpler then

 

Moon and snow

The palest of reflection

I’ve got room to grow

Still ready for your direction

A song for Pinkie from Party of One

 

 

 

Thousand Drops of Rain

 

Streaking beam of light I see

Hole in the clouds don't abandon me

I'm wearing out, I'm wearing thin

From this pit of shadow I'm living in

 

The light of laughter has left my gaze

A pale ghost of happier days

I used to wear a constant smile

But now my heart must face a trial

 

My friends have fled from me

Their return I wait to see

As I endure this unrelenting pain

From a thousand little drops of rain

 

They all wear that fake old grin

Shutting me out not letting me in

Don't they think that I can see

The cruel veins of their treachery

 

Will the sun shine again

Will I hear the call of the friendly wren

The day seems dark as blackest pitch

For the funny one they decide to ditch

 

My friends have fled from me

Their return I wait to see

As I endure this unrelenting pain

From a thousand little drops of rain

 

Maybe the clouds will clear

Maybe the sun will shine right though

Maybe I'll see friends dear

Maybe I'll finally learn the truth

 

For now , I'll make my own

And if they can't face me

I'll leave them alone

Until they come back to be...

 

My true friends...

 

My friends have fled from me

Their return I wait to see

As I endure this unrelenting pain

From a thousand little drops of rain
