One thousand years ago
You cut me off from everything I knew
You tossed me out
And you trapped me on the moon with no one else
You broke my heart
And nothing you can say will change that

I didn't mean anypony harm
I didn't mean anypony pain
But you banished me to the moon
You're not the pony I though I knew
Now I'm back and everyone will suffer

I didn't mean anypony harm
I didn't mean anypony pain
Now bow down to me, all you foals
Nighmare moon is here, in control
And the night will rule this world eternal

I didn't mean anypony harm
I didn't mean anypony pain
But you banished me to the moon
You're not the pony I though I knew
Now I'm back and everyone will suffer

I didn't mean anypony harm
I didn't mean anypony pain
Now bow down to me, all you foals
Nighmare moon is here, in control
And the night will rule this world eternal

One thousand years ago
You broke my heart and planted seeds of pain
I watched them grow
Having nothing else to do in that landscape
The flowers bloomed
Their blossoms smelled of deep-set hatred (hatred)

The endless wastes of time
They wore me down, reduced me to a foal
Then I rose up
A being fuelled by the though of sweet revenge
All kindness gone
And none of you ponies will be spared (be spared)

I didn't mean anypony harm
I didn't mean anypony pain
Those intentions are now long gone
Changed to tyranny by so long
Now I'm back and everyone will suffer

My memories of you are lost
All turned to mist by years of pain
Now I know that you're not so kind
All the light you bring just a guise
Why don't you show them what you truly are

I didn't mean anypony harm
I didn't mean anypony pain
Those intentions are now long gone
Changed to tyranny by so long
Now I'm back and everyone will suffer

My memories of you are lost
All turned to mist by years of pain
Now I know that you're not so kind
All the light you bring just a guise
Why don't you show them what you truly are
