Lyrics
[Chorus]
We are the children of the night
Chrysalis' brood, we live to fight
Love is our food, yet we can't feel
Is this curse forever real?
[Verse 1]
In shadows we lurk, misunderstood
Changelings born of darkness and wood
Our mother, the queen, with eyes so green
Chrysalis, our guide, forever unseen
[Verse 2]
We feed on love, but never receive
A hunger so deep, you can't conceive
Shapeshifters all, we wear your face
In this world, we have no place
[Instrumental]
[Verse 3]
Equestria fears our very name
But do they know our secret pain?
We long for belonging, a home to call our own
Instead, we're forced to roam alone
[Chorus]
We are the children of the night
Chrysalis' brood, we live to fight
Love is our food, yet we can't feel
Is this curse forever real?
[Bridge]
Are we destined to this fate?
Forever to assimilate?
Or can we change, evolve, and grow?
Find a love that's ours to know?
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 4]
Mother's ambition burns so bright
Her crown, her goal, her guiding light
We follow her lead, we have no choice
United by her commanding voice
[Verse 5]
Infiltrate and deceive, it's all we know
Our true forms hidden, emotions for show
But deep inside, a void so vast
How long can this charade last?
[Bass Interlude]
[Verse 6]
The hive mind buzzes, a constant drone
Yet each of us feels so alone
We yearn for freedom, to break away
But loyalty keeps us in dismay
[Chorus]
We are the children of the night
Chrysalis' brood, we live to fight
Love is our food, yet we can't feel
Is this curse forever real?
[Verse 7]
Chrysalis, our queen, our mother dear
Your love for us, is it sincere?
Or are we just pawns in your grand scheme?
Disposable in your power dream
[Verse 8]
We've known no kindness, no gentle touch
Is it wrong to want so much?
To be accepted, loved for who we are
Instead of monsters from afar
[Instrumental]
[Verse 9]
The ponies unite, with friendship's might
While we retreat into the night
Defeated again, but we'll return
For revenge, our hearts still burn
[Chorus]
We are the children of the night
Chrysalis' brood, we live to fight
Love is our food, yet we can't feel
Is this curse forever real?
[Drum Instrumental]
[Verse 10]
In darkness we dwell, misunderstood
Changelings, forever the unloved brood
But maybe someday, we'll find our way
To a place where we can stay
[Bridge]
Are we destined to this fate?
Forever to assimilate?
Or can we change, evolve, and grow?
Find a love that's ours to know?
[Outro]
We are the children of Chrysalis
Searching for our own bliss
In shadows we'll remain
Until we break this chain
[Fading Emo Instrumental]
