Draconequus - Lands Beyond Equestria

[Ziminite]

Note: There is an intro overture in the source video that has an annotation to skip to the actual song; I recommend cutting that intro out! There's also a 1 minute 20 second instrumental solo from 4:40 to 6:00 in the source video that I would actually recommend leaving in, 'cause it's awesome and would take away from the song, being the genre that it is, if cut out. It's up to the songmaker, though!

[Verse 1]
On that last day of solace
A merry repose in the sun
Wrought dragon-lent citation
Its goddess summons to each one

Each subject calm
Every bird in song
What could be wrong?

The palace by next daybreak
No time to fret or be appalled
Uncertainty, confusion
Would clarity be ours at all?

The goddess queen had di-vined
that the swarm would attack, this
realm they'll take back

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Vigilance augers its return
A vow to see everything burn
Preemptively strike the nest
A young protégé's final test

[Chorus]
Lands beyond Equestria
What dangers lie in store
You must hasten hence
to stop another war

Lands beyond Equestria
A frightful destiny
Your final test awaits you now
This quest avails no one
tardy

[Verse 2]
I cannot go with you
A fragile peace I must uphold
But am I ready now
to fly from your comforting hold

Fear not, Twilight
You've been ready all along
Believe you are strong!

You count on strength from knowledge
But know it cannot guide you now
To only trust in instinct
I really don't think I know how

Dispel idle doubt
There's no time; we must
allay such fears to
carry this day

[Pre-Chorus 2]
This burden is heavy even for you
But I know I'll pull through
For I won't be alone in this quest
My friends will help me pass this test

[Chorus]

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Verse 3]
It seems this is our fate
with all my friends here by my side
Nowhere to go but forward
though it may be a bumpy ride

Only one complication
What could go wrong?

An empty throne left silent
an icon vacant once revered
A bellicose extortion
Nocturnal goddess disappeared

This treacherous ploy single-handedly a-
bout to bring the end of this age

[Pre-Chorus 3]
You cannot falter now
Even as our confidence frays
Indecision fades away
Make the queen regret this day

[Chorus]
