Description:
The ballad of the Shadow Queen: (sung by King Sombra and Twilight Sparkle)
(Corrupted Twilight watches herself in a crystal mirror and realizes what has become of her. She sees her former self trapped on the inside. Twilight observes the black crystals forming over her body.)
Twilight:
(Small slower reprise of The Failure song)
I thought I could complete the test, but now I have lost the quest,
-To overcome King Sombra’s tricks/ but I wasn’t prepared for this….
(A deep chilling laughter interrupts Twilights thoughts. Instrumental ballad)
Sombra: My empress of darkness/, my precious jewel
With you by my side/ together we shall rule
We shall let the Royals fall/ and make them feel like fools
For their nightmares will come true….
Twilight: Ever since I was young/ when I saw the rising sun,
I knew it was my destiny…
I would master the mystic arts/ from the power of my heart
And restore the empire’s harmony…
Is all that I’ve learned a lie? An illusion? And why?
I just don’t know what I am anymore….
Sombra: Be patient, my pet. I shall teach you yet
-And make you more powerful than before!
Chorus: ITS TIME FOR THE RISE OF MIDNIGHT SHADOW
It is time for the Crystal Empire to fall,
Sombra: Soon we will stand and watch them crawl
And soon my love, we shall rule them all.
….
Sombra: Your power is pure, your heart is strong,
They say you can’t change destiny, but they are all wrong
I have seen your fears, I have heard the lies,
Embrace the darkness and together we shall rise
Twilight: They’ll hold me down no more
No longer will I hide
Its time to spread my wings and soar
Release the power deep inside
Sombra: IT’S TIME TO RISE MY QUEEN OF SHADOWS
Twi: Its time to unlock my true powers,
The clock is ticking, it’s a matter of time,
Together: And soon, my dear, Equestria will be ours
….
Shining armour:
My sweet sister, ever since you were a foal
Your sweet smile made our lives whole
Now that you’re under King Sombra’s control
What has become of your soul?
Shining armour: is it real or is it a dream, i cant be sure
(Spike: cant be sure)
is there a way- to turn back time, is there a cure?
(Spike: is there a cure)
Cadence: is it too late/ to reverse your fate/ now that your heart is tainted with hate.
….
Chorus: ITS TIME FOR THE RISE OF TWILIGHT SOMBRA.
- It’s time for darkness to prevail,
Sombra: With you by my side together we shall ride…
Twi: And soon Equestria will fail.
