Lyrics (adapted from MLP wiki):
Would you say I'm a hero
Glorious and brave
If I told you something you wouldn't believe?

That sometimes I'm scared*
And I # make mistakes*
And I'm not so heroic, it seems

But if day can turn to night*
And the darkness turn to light*
Then why can't we imagine a changeling can change?

No two ponies are exactly the same
No two snowflakes ever match their design
And I thought I was strong
But I was nothing but wrong
When I forgot to be friendly and kind

But if day can turn to night*
And the darkness turn to light*
Then why can't we imagine a changeling can change?

Would you say I'm a hero
Glorious and brave
If I told you something you wouldn't believe?

This changeling, it seems*
Knows the real me*
And would stay by my side 'til the end*

So if day can turn to night*
And the darkness turn to light*
Then why can't we imagine
# Why can't we imagine
Then why can't we imagine a changeling can change?

[Spike: We can imagine it! A changeling can change.]
