In the land of Equestria, long ago

there were two royal sisters, of that you know

One brought the night, the other the day

But one other princess, was hidden away

One so sad, with a broken heart

for in this world, she had no part

One who had, the gift of will

but nopony, needed her still

For ponies ruled, the Equestrian land

and setting it free, was never planned

So from the castle, one day she fled

ponies watching her, fly overhead

She felt so useless, so unneeded

her sorrow ignored, so unheeded

She flew to the south, nopony was there

the land had no will, it was all bare

She poured her magic, into the earth

she saw it all happen, her magic give birth

Birth to a land, where all was free

from the weather, to the growth of a tree

She brought some ponies, to show them her land

they stayed a while, finding it grand

But soon they learned, the darker side

of the shadows, and what they hide

The creatures that lurked, behind the bend

were the kind, you couldn't befriend

Then one morning, the moon wouldn't go down

it wouldn't make room, for the sun to come roun'

The ponies got scared, they panicked and fled

and left the princess, filled with dread

She feared the worst, what her magic had brought

that night time eternal, was what she had wrought

She thought just then, what if she fled,
she knew if she left, her spell would be dead

the land would return, to be barren and bare
and once again, nopony would care

The moon would fall, the sun would rise
and she'd again be hidden, to their eyes

And so she decided, her mind was set
She would now leave, and end this threat

She spread her wings, about to soar
but something pinned her, to the floor

Heavy vines, held her bound
a pit appeared, beneath her ground

The forest she had loved, she had made
and now by what, she was betrayed

It had a will, and it knew
that if she left, her magic would too

A prison was made, extreme perhaps
for if the forest died, it would collapse

Now she was trapped, by her own creation
she could only pray, for her salvation

As time passed, her heart began to fade
for nopony, had come to her aid

As years passed, her cell would relax
and she could hear, voices through cracks

But try and try, she'd call and yell
she couldn't be heard, through her cell

as she listened, the voices would fall
and soon she couldn't, hear them at all

She accepted the fact, nopony would come
she saw her freedom, would never be won

Now the princess, Everfree
is now and forever, never free
