Here's an interesting idea I had. To make an electronic-style song, using only acoustic instruments. It has now been done, and I'm quite satisfied with how it came out. Hope you enjoy it!
I'd like to extend my thanks to RainSnowHail for giving me some tips on mixing this song. Helped it turn out nicely.

Lyrics:
Something tells me my life is about to change Like I'm never going back And I feel as if nothing will be the same As if everything goes black Call me out if it seems like I'm paranoid Well, it extends beyond the eye There's so much fear inside
(chorus) (what are the odds) What are the odds that I would find myself where I began? (what are the odds) How high is the chance of running 'round in circles now and then? (what are the odds) Maybe it's all in my mind, but it's about time I read the signs Oh, it's about time! It's about time!
(v2) What if all that I do is insignificant? What if nothing matters now? I would take back the time wasted if I could But I don't even know how All my worries have lead me to emptiness But at least I've been around At least it's over now
(repeat chorus) (what are the odds) What are the odds that I would find myself where I began? (what are the odds) How high is the chance of running 'round in circles now and then? (what are the odds) Maybe it's all in my mind, but it's about time I read the signs Oh, it's about time! It's about time!

(v1) Everything changed, the day you walked into my life You put the colour back into my eyes Nothing can break this bond, I am yours forever more You'll be my princess and I'll be your prince in shining armour
(chorus) This is the beginning of a life-long adventure And I get to spend it with you Your love is all I need, now and forever Two hearts, two words, just say "I do"
(v2) You'll never know how much you mean to me When we're old and gray, I'll love you still The splendor of castles and the starry night skies Don't compare to your beauty I know our paths will never stray With you at my side I have no fear
The original two versions (yes, TWO) were actually never fully finished. Both JackleApp's idea and Tarby's demo were never fully polished after the song was written. Tarby made two full demos, and JackleApp only had a partial demo.
So, a while back, Tarby gave me permission to do a cover of this song, as JackleApp had basically handed it over to him, and several years later, this is what I imagine the song would have sounded like if it had been fully recorded, mixed and mastered.
So I see that you're still stuck on the ground Caught down there all warm and safe and sound I know what it's like to be down there Dreaming of the sky and open air
One day soon I just know you'll see Raise your head and smile for me Laugh about your history Know just what you're meant to be
You sigh and always try to play it cool But deep inside, you still feel like a fool The world's so big and you, you feel so small Wondering if you should try at all
Well, Tomorrow's not til today is gone Live the moment, don't take long Forget the troubles you think on Smile for impending dawn
Is it time to break the mold? Are you doing what you're told? Go ahead, you can be bold. Live for living, don't be cold! When your final days have come Smile at the mile's you've run Come on, have a little fun Spread your wings your time has come!
Sitting, hoping for the wings you've earned Silent as the fire in you burned
Brush away the dust and ash On your shoulders from the past Smile at the things that last Feel the beat, your dice are cast Stroke of luck, or fate, rejoice Now you finally have a choice So prove them wrong in what they say ...Or wait another day4everfreebrony - The Speed Of Sound (feat. @Aviators) #sonicfrontiers4everfreebrony2022-11-08 | Download: 4everfreebrony.bandcamp.com/track/the-speed-of-sound

Lyrics:
(v1) No stopping now, no slowing down It's been so long since I last unwound Can't catch a break, make no mistakes It's been a while since I felt this way Time's running dry, still don't know why Part of me wants to ignore the cries Yet I'm compelled, under this spell Of playing hero, am I unwell?
(chorus) Tell me, who can smell the roses at the speed of sound? It's hard to breathe it in when you can't slow down There's a time to wait, a time to go Which is which we still don't know And I may be faster than the speed of sound But can I take it slow?
(v2) Is there an end? Please tell me when It's plenty worth it to save a friend Fresh from the fight, doing what's right Is it enough to be fast this time They don't fight fair, and this is not my land But nothing compares to the gifts I have I'll lose my way, I'll go astray Both night and day, but here I cannot stay
(repeat chorus)
(bridge) But all the signs say "Turn away" "No one listens when you pray" "Fold your cards or stand and pay the price" Well, try and catch me if you can I'm running here without a plan Friends in need, I think I'll cast my dice
So, this one is pretty well known already, but I figured it would be cool to do a version that sounds like the Gary Jules' rendition. I tried to make it sound as close as possible, and it turned out pretty good!

(v1) All around me are familiar ponies All so crazy, all so crazy Started out with just my good intentions Getting nowhere, getting nowhere Ponyville is filling up with laughter A disaster, a disaster Dunk my head into a pool of mirrors Getting nearer, getting nearer
(chorus) And I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad The copies I created are far more than I had planned I don't know how to tell you, don't think you'd understand When pinkies run in numbers its a very, very Mad world, mad world
(v2) All I sought was to have fun with my friends Now its crazy, now its crazy Haven't got a clue, how to make amends Watching paint dry, watching paint dry One by one they're judged and banished back now Pay attention, pay attention. By the end who is the real Pinkie? No one knows now, no one knows now
(chorus 2) And I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad The copies I created are far more than I had planned I don't know how to tell you, don't think you'd understand When pinkies run in numbers its a very, very Mad world, mad world Enlarging your world, mad world

After hearing this tune at BronyCon 2019 (and helping play it at Neighhem 2), I felt it really deserved more attention. It may not have many words, but it really struck me as one of the most heartfelt MLP songs in the fandom.

(v1) Every time your sun sets Do you feel regret For what happened in centuries past? Has your spirit grown cold? Like her lunar mold And do you know why she chose that path?
(chorus) Millennium alone Luna, payed the debt On the moon she owned Moving tides as she wept
Oh Luna, Lunaaaaaaa…
(v2) Every time the moon is full Can you feel the pull Of your little sister in need? So, keep your smile To hide the turmoil Hidden deep underneath

I literally cried when I heard this tune for the first time. The entire message just hit me so hard. It's very "human" to be aware of your flaws, and yet still be completely unable to fix them. Sometimes the best we can do is learn how to live with our flaws.

(v1) Rewrite my program, reset my brain I think there’s something wrong with what... ...I think Alone I wander, through wasteland scene But still I find my mind Won’t let me be
(chorus 1) I am imperfection I know I am flawed Can somebody help me find What I lost before I am limitation I know I can’t exceed Is there any hope for A heart that cannot be
(v2) I fought, I fought, I fought for a future Where my life meant something real I thought, I thought, I thought if I tried Hard enough, I could find my own will But circuitry keeps me from changing my function A glitch in the system is all I have for it Why would my maker make me aware of the Flaw I can’t change

The adroable artwork up there was done by Ronin20181!
(v1) She looks outside her window at the rising sun And she also looks at the same time at her beloved one Dinky's sorting out the mail for her in such a thoughtful way She saddles up her bags and Peeks in the looking glass And hears her daughter say "Hey Mommy, can you see how good you look today? Your right eye has a sparkle, and the left one wants to play Your mane looks extra shiny and your feathers extra soft Your cutie mark reminds me that our love will never pop!"
(chorus) Oh, Ditzy Doo! All the world's in love with you It's like you're a fresh-baked muffin, and the rest of us are you Ah, Derpy! Tell me, can those bright eyes see? You make living happier for everypony
(v2) She takes off down the road in search of the day's first home and Although it takes a moment, she spots the boutique A white mare canters out and her lips rise from a pout when She cannot help but shout, "Hello!" to that gray streak Then in the marketplace where every eye knows her face She's greeted by their good grace, and she has none to spare A farm mare selling apples tosses our friend a hatful It's more than she can grapple, but she thanks the mare Though she's a little wonky, each pony and each donkey Together and all on key sing her a song
The first time I ever heard this song was at Ponyville Ciderfest 2019, but instead of being in the audience, I was asked to quickly learn it on acoustic guitar so as to join them on stage to perform it! I immediately adored the song, and probably ended up crying somewhere along the road while practicing the darn thing.
Very well written, and honestly a great message. Bullies are harmful, and they can come from anywhere, whether it be the person next to you, or the one teaching the class.
Also, a super special thanks to BlueBrony for joining me on this one. He put a ton of time and effort into this one, and I was so glad to be able to work with him. ^^

(v1) "Look at her," they said as they snickered behind her back "What a freak, with eyes that don't focus" "Always last to get it, with everypony waiting for her to catch up" "And can you call that English, your random words don't make sense"
(chorus) And she tries to tell them she's not dumb There's something wrong with her tongue And she knows just as much as you C'mon, see what she can do When you give her a chance
(v2) Teacher's lounge: they've already decided on her fate All they see is everything she can't do "Always needs so much help; takes away the time from the other foals" "It's easier to ignore her; at least she can be quiet"
(repeat chorus) And she tries to tell them she's not dumb There's something wrong with her tongue And she knows just as much as you C'mon, see what she can do When you give her a chance
(v3) All her life, people telling her what she cannot do After time, she started to believe them
(chorus 2) And she tries to tell them she's not dumb There's something wrong with her tongue And she loves just as much as you C'mon, see what she can do When you give her a chance

In all seriousness, though, these are all very hard things to deal with, whether you have them, or someone you know does. Not everyone has disorders like these, but they are real, and they are always there, even though folks who have them may not show it as often. Some hide it, some can't.
(v1) When Twilight lived in Canterlot, She studied hard, she couldn't stop There never was a page she didn't read A gifted school, to be the best She had to pass a terrible test Her mind was full of stress she didn't need
But then there came a huge explosion Changed her like a magic potion Zap! Crack! She hatched a dragon Grown to a size it shouldn't be
(pre-chorus 1) Little did she know, on that very day, She befriended a creature that would help her every way, Through the excitement Through the peril Always there to say
(chorus) A dragon is the finest creature ever There's more to him than just guarding treasure He'll brush your mane, he'll clean your room He'll harmonize to any tune Name a time, whatever the weather With Spike "at your service" always better
(Ya-da-da)
(bridge) Behold the Noble Dragon Code, we've followed it through all our lives With wings and claws and fire-breath, There comes a price to pay From Icy peak to Magma Cone, we'll grant your wish, we'll sacrifice The fine-print of the ancient scrolls is what we must obey
(Smaug, Toothless, Ridley, Blue-Eyes White, Hooktail, Spyro, Trogdor the Burninator! Volvagia, Charizard, Mushu, Red-Eyes Black, Norbert, Puff the Magic Dragon, HA HA HAAA!!!)
(v2) Spike is skilled and very smart He'll help you finish your work of art Friends were family he never had He left to find his blood, you see To know what he is meant to be To find the truth and where it all began
But no matter how hard he tried Couldn't live on the dragon's side "I don't need you, and I'll tell you why" "My friends love me for who I am....."
(pre-chorus 2) He's not very strong, he can't really fly He sure ain't perfect but he'll darn well try Through the adventure Along the journey Always by your side
COPYCAT 2 IS HERE!!! Has 17 brand-spankin' new songs, and includes a bunch of featured artists!
This album was made with the intent of bringing to light some of the lesser-known hidden gems in the fandom, which is why most of you have probably never heard the original version of this song before. Some of the tracks on the album are more well-known, but most of them are tragically overlooked.
Special thanks to FritzyBeat for joining me on this one. He originally introduced the song to me, claiming it as one of his all time favorites out of the hidden gems of the fandom. If it weren't for him, I never would have discovered it.

Anyone who's been in a position of leadership can understand the message of this song. Life is full of problems, and sometimes all we can do is put a band-aid on it or provide a temporary distraction. Sometimes we can only give comforting words, even if they mean nothing to many listeners. Everyone wants answers and solutions, and when we have none, we are not allowed to admit so.
We are never allowed to say "I don't know".
--------------------------------
That incredible artwork up there was done by Ambient Rain!
(v1) As far as the eye can see All eyes are on me They think I have what they need But how can I answer every plea?
(chorus) They tell me "Hey" "Can't you see that we're hurting?" "You got the answer, cure all the cancer "Within our homes" What should I say? There's no perfect solution I end up declaring something temporary Because I'm not allowed to say "I don't know"
(v2) One million voices all at once They all say I have what everyone wants And I hear some say that I have it all And yet I can't answer every call
(repeat chorus)
(bridge) I'm one of you, I'm no one special But my shiny crown convinced you otherwise I wish they knew, my situation I'm an ordinary nothing in disguise
Sometimes it's hard to notice when good things happen, especially when bad news is constantly pushed to into the spotlight. It takes a lot more effort to see a blessing or a good deed, and little to no effort to notice a flaw or mistake.
There will only be brighter days ahead if you seek out the brightness yourself.

Thanks for joining me on this adventure, everyone. ^^ I hope y'all enjoyed this little series (that took WAY too long to finish, lol). I have another series of songs coming up soon, and will probably be announced in the near future.

Definitely one of my favorites from the album, we proudly present the finale track of Lost & Found, "Tough Without You"! I had a blast of a time coming up with this track! Lyrics were difficult but fun, instrumental was quirky and somewhat supposed to sound like Hanson, and both SaxPon3 and Zephy were EXTREMELY instrumental (ha) with their saxophone skills, bringing the tune to life exactly how I envisioned it.
(v1) I'll be searching day and night The big old sun, it sure is bright But it's hard to keep it burning without you And when the sun is out of sight The moon will be my guiding light But it's hard to keep it turning without you
(chorus 1) It's hard to keep it turning without you
(v2) Summer, winter, spring and fall Seasons move around us all But it's hard keep 'em rolling without you Seconds keep on passing by The numbers tell us how and why But time will never stand still without you
(chorus 2) Time will never stand still without you
(guitar solo)
(v3) Guess who I've been thinking of My little heart is full of love But it's hard to keep it beating without you
Working with Namii is always a delight, and she always impresses me with her vocal range and control. This song is WAAAYYY outside my wheelhouse, but I had fun with it. It's definitely a first for me in terms of making a fully-electronic-based tune.
(v1) Would you have guessed You'd be the hero of the night And not the one in distress? Would you have guessed? Ohhhhhh I'd be the one to save your life Instead of you saving mine At such a height
(chorus) I feel the rushing air from down below One moment we were in a tornado It threw me out just like a wake-up call I need someone to come and….break my fall
(v2) We'll be okay Surely, we'll make it out alive As long as we keep awake We'll be okay Ohhhhhh Can you believe we've come this far And still there's so much to see? Can you believe?
Definitely tried to go for a more southern folk rock sound for this one. Kept it super simple, stayed in my lower range, put in a releaxed guitar solo, called it a day. Was pretty surprised how much it ended up sounding somewhat like Johnny Cash. Bit shorter than usual, but still turned out awesome.

That fabulous artwork up there was done by Nikosh14!
(v1) Hangtime up in the sky A new sensation and a deadly ride I can't find a single sign An evidence or any hope for life I'm starting to give in to all the wind
(chorus) But any moment now we'll finally hit the ground But until then we'll just be spinning round and round
(v2) Hang tight, hold on to me I won't let go until we're finally free We'll fly like a mystery A pair of ponies in a raging breeze And hopefully we'll make it out alive

This was very much a "spur of the moment" thing, and I'm super glad Prince was willing and ready to help out with it! I'm not a huge Blink fan, but the moment I heard this song, I instantly loved it.

(v1) (4EFB) A lone mare Traversing through a nightmare Who won't stay in the background anymore Equestria is waiting For someone to unite them For somepony to invite them through the door Now everypony's hiding And kept in eerie stillness And wondering "oh, will this ever end?" Oh, will this ever end?
(chorus 1) We'll get through… We'll get through…
(v2) (PW) Where are we? I won't say sorry For everything and every word I've said I wish somepony would listen And hear my reasons So we could live in harmony again I know it's not that simple But everything starts somewhere Little things can help us on our way As easy as a postcard A tiny indication That you got friends here in Maretime Bay Here in Maretime Bay

What's that you say? You've never heard Cookie Dough (my incredible wife) sing before? Well, that's because she's never recorded her singing voice until now! Figured she was the perfect candidate for a duet song about feeling you belong with someone.

What would you guys think of more of these? I figured they might be helpful for those wanting to learn my solo sections. I'm thinking of uploading them as filler content between bigger projects. Let me know what you guys think!
So, this was a fun little project we decided to take on a while back. We initially were going to form a band called "Chromatic Aftermath", doing all sorts of genres and styles, but many of us got pretty busy, so we couldn't really dedicate enough time or effort to it. However, we managed to crank out one final product, so this is what we would have sounded like!

(v1) Over the blue the invisible current blows A wave that can't be seen And we are driven away to somewhere nobody knows Away from everything And we are fearful for both our lives We may just not survive Within this breeze Within this breeze
(Chorus) Oh-oh-woah, across the water by the wind we go Oh-oh-woah, still our final stop remains unknown. If we could sail through the ocean Paddle with something Fate might let us float And as we row The life in the air will let us know
(v2) Out of the way of any civilization known It seems we've gone too far I could look from a cloud but I'll never leave you alone For when the tide hits hard And we are fearful for both our lives We may just not survive So many scars So many scars
(Alt Chorus) Oh-oh-woah, cross the water by the wind we go Oh-oh-woah, still our final stop remains unknown. If we could sail through the ocean Paddle with something Fate might let us float And as we row And as we row

(repeat chorus)4everfreebrony - I Wish I Could Stand On A Cloud [PMV by CreeperZone]4everfreebrony2022-01-29 | Go check out CreeperZone's channel!
It's supposed to look and sound like Bill Wurtz. I had this idea when I first heard his song "I'm A Princess" (now my favorite of his), and I although it's not as long (or even average length) I still had a ton of fun making it.
After tweeting about wanting to make a video in Bill Wurtz' style, CreeperZone approached me and made the video in a matter of days, and we're both super happy with how it turned out!
--------------------------------
Lyrics:
(v1) Sometimes I wish I could stand on a cloud Or maybe just push it around Wish I could take all the raindrops away And keep them for myself for a day
(chorus) The princess gave me a heart of gold But I told her that I wanted wings
(v2) Guess what I just got a new pair of wings Guess M.A. Larson made me a king I mean a princess or whatever you call it The point is there's a lot in my wallet
(bridge) And now I can fly But I'm not very good at it But still I can fly And still I'm not very good at it I'll break down your house I'll break down your streets I'll break down the trees and the birds and the bees I'll fly through the castle with my brand new wings I'm less than a penny 'cause I'm free
(chorus) The princess gave me a pair of wings What was she thinking to give me these
Was super fun having my older brother join me for this one. He and I have been in choirs together for years, and singing together is one of the things that really shaped our childhood. We grew up belting out our favorite tunes in the car, in the back yard, in the house, and neither of us have had any professional training. We sounded pretty cruddy back then, but we're pretty decent now. ^^

(v1) I still go strolling through the town It's not so hard to figure out 'Cause I love to be out and about But only sometimes, only sometimes
(v2) I still go flying through the blue There's not much left for me to do You'd find it soothing if you knew But only sometimes, only sometimes
Only sometimes, only sometimes
(Chorus) Oh, the sun burns But it's never Enough to light up all around the world You don't know me You can't find me You won't see behind my eyes Until the sunrise
(v2) I still go wand'ring in the rain No other way to ease the pain Feels like just rinsing off the stain But only sometimes, only sometimes
(Bridge) Oh, it's been said I'm lost and alone But it won't bother me As I sit inside my throne
(Chorus) Oh, the sun burns But it's never Enough to light up all around the world You don't know me You can't find me You won't see behind my eyes Until the sunrise4everfreebrony - Tears From The Sky | Tranquil Tuesday (Thursday)4everfreebrony2022-01-07 | Just like Monday Melodies, a new album will be available once 8 of these have been uploaded to YouTube.

Well, it's finally here. None of you even knew this was a thing, but it's HERE!!!!
I proudly present my new concept album, "Lost & Found". It's a story of two characters (Doctor Whooves and Derpy) going on an adventure for the ages, brought ot life by the hands and imagination of a child.

That wonderful artwork up there was done by Bonez Night!
(v1) Nature may already have its design But you are the morning and evening am I Seasons are changing, the heavens will cry And they will be raining their teardrops of ice And if we're lucky we'll go for a ride
(chorus) Snow keeps my mind on you 'Cause your soul is so white and pure And I know…. You're never cold But that aside, you remind me of snow
(v2) Some things are already chosen by fate But somehow you improve my life every day It's getting colder, so inside we'll go Stay close beside and we'll keep safe and warm Whatever the weather, you make me feel home
Yep, it's *that* song. I actually released two older versions of this in 2013 and 2014, but i feel like this is the only version that somewhat does the original justice, quality-wise, that is. Despite the fact that everyone associates this song with sad advertisements and sad movies, I personally think the song itself is gorgeous. Enjoy!

Fabulous artwork (and animation) by Etienne Boilley!
(v1) Spend all your life looking, but you never know Exactly what you're looking for It all seems so simple, and so easy to see But you just can't explain it at all You need some direction, ohhh put your mind at ease Remedy made for your eyes When you feel ready, and your heart beating steady You'll find a way to fly...
(chorus) On the wings of the Rainbow Fly away from here And you feel free forever And the path ahead is so clear You can see out for ages All the future memories You're on the wings of the rainbow May you find, you belong here
(v2) So tired of the insults, the pointing and the names 'Cause everyone knows who I am And they just keep coming, keep on wasting their time And they think it'll keep me in line Well, someday I'll show them, and get it in their heads That soon they'll all look up to me But 'til then I'm no one, oh I wish I was someone There's nothing left to be
(repeat chorus) On the wings of the Rainbow Fly away from here And you feel free forever And the path ahead is so clear You can see out for ages All the future memories You're on the wings of the rainbow May you find, you belong here

(v1) I can feel the ambience in life Lying in background in silence and ignorance Miracles are found in the ballrooms of bravery Courage is a dangerous dance
(chorus) Oh Fear is my right to say "no" Peace is my reason to grow And still I remain here alone When will I feel like I'm home?
(v2) Belonging is a stranger to me Caught up in a snowstorm of wandering misery Staring through a mirror, reflections of life are seen Yet I feel an absence in me
(repeat chorus)
(bridge) How long will I run from myself? How long will I run from myself? How long will I run from myself? How long will I run from myself? How long will I run from myself? How long will I run from myself? How long?
(repeat chorus)

Sorry for the recent lack of videos, guys. Was just busy with Everfree Northwest, as well as finishing up a new album. Uploads should be more regular after next week.
Rivalries don't always mean you have to hate each other. You should respect each other, knowing that the other is just as good, talented, or competitive as you are.
So, this is mine and PW's collab! Was in the works for a bit, but we're both super happy with how the whole thing turned out! And thanks to Blackened Blue for lending his vocal talents for the harmonies!
(v1) I thought we would hit it off so well But you keep me guessing I knew not where your recklessness would dwell And you're still not listening Your order's way too tall And you think you've got it all Well, I'm not gonna break your fall this time Let's see how far you climb
(pre-chorus 1) So here's what I'm trying to say
(chorus) I'll let you fly away And don't you dare come back You made a big mistake So leave while you can Before my patience fades Now this is your last chance I'll let you fly away And don't you dare come back
(v2) I know, you try to keep me on the ground 'Cause you're scared of your limits If you, can't keep up you should stay down 'Cause I'm in it to win it You'll try to take it all I'll watch you rise and fall You dare to take my wings How well can you fly in lightning
(pre-chorus 2) I guess I'll see you around
(chorus 2) I'll watch you fly away Glide on to calmer skies You've made your last mistake So you can watch while I- -Fly on- through storm and rain I'll bear the pain, and I'll- -Become- the wonderbolt that you could never be
(frickin' sick guitar duel)
(chorus 3) I'll watch you fly away And I'll finally rest my case Back out and fold your cards You weren't born to play this part So, fly away Just fly away, or you're gonna crash I'll watch you fly away And don't you dare come back4everfreebrony - Peace, At Last | Tranquil Tuesdays4everfreebrony2021-06-29 | Just like Monday Melodies, a new album will be available once 8 of these have been uploaded to YouTube.

There are very few people who don't find nature to be a source of comfort in some way.

Yep, starting a new series! Hope you guys enjoy this more ambient-style music! Should be posting these on every Tuesday (or every other Tuesday, depending on whether or not my more anticipated content is ready or not). Either way, enjoy!
What would you guys think of more of these? I figured they might be helpful for those wanting to learn my solo sections. I'm thinking of uploading them as filler content between bigger projects. Let me know what you guys think!
Would like to thank everyone for joining me on this journey every other week. I won't be doing Monday Melodies for a while, mainly because I'll be starting a new series in a couple weeks. Stay tuned!

This is probably one of my favorite tracks on the whole acoustic album. It shows such a different side of the message, and really focuses on softer tones in comparison the high energy of the original version. Hope you guys enjoy it!
(v1) I can't believe that I thought it'd be easy Well I guess that no one's perfect I was deceived by a thing we call dreamin' 'Cause I thought I couldn't hurt it Now look at me, it's so easy to see Something's hidin' what I asked for It's been years now And I'm still seekin' it out, oh
(chorus) Maybe I'm only stuck On my own cloud above Maybe it's okay Or maybe I'm insane Maybe it's meant to be so tough Ohhhhh, or maybe all I need is love
(v2) Once again, I can feel myself fadin' But I see a new life being colored in I can tell that my heart is done achin' But I wonder if I've gained another skin I can't stop this transformation An odd sensation's takin' me for a ride All the way back through my mind

Not my favorite vocal work, but I'm still very happy with the instrumental. Only reason I kept it this way is to make it sound as if you were standing right next to me. Hope you enjoy it!
(v1) Something tells me my life is about to change Like I'm never going back And I feel as if nothing will be the same As if everything goes black Call me out if it seems like I'm paranoid Well, it extends beyond the eye There's so much fear inside
(chorus) (what are the odds) What are the odds that I would find myself where I began? (what are the odds) How high is the chance of running 'round in circles now and then? (what are the odds) Maybe it's all in my mind, but it's about time I read the signs Oh, it's about time! It's about time!
(v2) What if all that I do is insignificant? What if nothing matters now? I would take back the time wasted if I could But I don't even know how All my worries have lead me to emptiness But at least I've been around At least it's over now
(repeat chorus) (what are the odds) What are the odds that I would find myself where I began? (what are the odds) How high is the chance of running 'round in circles now and then? (what are the odds) Maybe it's all in my mind, but it's about time I read the signs Oh, it's about time! It's about time!4everfreebrony - Icicles Through The Window | Monday Melodies4everfreebrony2021-04-06 | You know the drill. 8 of these on YouTube and then an album link will be available.

Quite a different take on this one. I was unsure of how I wanted to go about making an acoustic version of this song, but after I got it started, the whole thing kind of just came together on its own. Enjoy!
(v1) Ponyville, I was in love with you But I'm trying something new Ya don't need me now I knew it was too good to be true I knew that we'd both lose And you've let me down
(chorus 1) It's time to say goodbye 'Cause I've learned how to fly Don't wanna see you anytime soon All tension's thin out here In this cool atmosphere So, I'll be living here on the moon
La da da da da La da da da da La da da da da da La da da da da
(v2) Look at me, trottin' here on my own I mean, look how far I've flown It's already growing on me Come to think of it, you'll never see me again Don't even ask me how I've been And don't even think about me
(repeat chorus 1) Here on the moon
(solo)
(bridge) This is no game of hide and seek I guess I just need time to think So face the facts 'Cause I won't be back
(chorus 2) It's time to say goodbye 'Cause I've learned how to fly Don't wanna see you anytime soon All tension's thin out here In this cool atmosphere So I'll be living here on the moon I'm not playing hide and seek I just need time to think So I'll be thinking here on the moon
