Pegasus Device

Lyrics: Deep in the pages of history Lies a shadow hiding in a mystery A late night story buried far away Until it once again sees the light of day And when the little colts and fillies turn out all lights And tell a story of a factory as black as night The luxury of rainbows comes at a price Just ignore the screams, and don't think twice You've proven to yourself and to all of us That you're not fit to fly like a Pegasus You don't even deserve those wings you bear When you stand beside a legend, you don't even compare All of the failures help to fuel success In the bloody and visceral weather game of Chess And just because you've disappointed you'll pay the price Now accept your fate and die in the Pegasus Device Phantom screams echo through the ruined facility A horrible silence builds an eerie tranquility The souls of many innocent fill the air And the hope that they all died with scattered here and there A mighty machine built within the wake Of a long dead dream, little demon awake The citizens sleep, never quite knowing when The device will reawaken, hungry again You've proven to yourself and to all of us That you're not fit to fly like a Pegasus You don't even deserve those wings you bear When you stand beside a legend, you don't even compare All of the failures help to fuel success In the bloody and visceral weather game of Chess And just because you've disappointed you'll pay the price Now accept your fate and die in the Pegasus Device (pause) All of the failures help to fuel success In the bloody and visceral weather game of Chess And just because you've disappointed you'll pay the price Now accept your fate and die in the Pegasus Device I don't even remember my past I don't remember who I used to be I don't even remember my friends of old I don't remember my destiny My mane is purple and my coat is orange What I've become? I have no idea. I only know one simple thing The name they gave me: Absentia You've proven to yourself and to all of us That you're not fit to fly like a Pegasus You don't even deserve those little wings you bear When you stand beside a legend, you don't even compare All of the failures help to fuel success In the bloody and visceral weather game of Chess And just because you've disappointed you'll pay the price Now accept your fate and die in the Pegasus Device I don't even recognize your rainbow mane When you hide it behind that mask of shame You don't even deserve those wings you bear You used to be a legend, a righteous mare All of the failures help to fuel success In your bloody and visceral weather game of Chess And then you sit upon your throne and you roll your diamond dice And you send us all to die in your Pegasus Device In the Rainbow Factory, where fears and horrors come true In the Rainbow Factory, where not a single soul gets through In the Rainbow Factory, where failures pay their toll Now I've awoken, and I'm taking back control
