LOYALTY
AcoustiMandoBrony Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You see me soaring through the sky
I see you below as you walk on by
I could clear the sky in 10 second flat
Well how about that? Well how about that?

I could be sitting here on a cloud
Watching the sun as it starts to go down
The only thing missing
Is you by my side

Give me a smidge of confidence
Give me a speck of something that makes sense
Give me an idea of dependency
Give me a dash of loyalty
Loyalty (loyalty)

I could save my lonely soul for you
But the feeling in my heart can't follow through
(Can't follow, can't follow through)
You can give your broken heart to me
Cause you know that I'll stay with you
That's why they call me loyalty
Loyalty (loyalty)

The sun shines bright, yet the rain pours on
Rainbows here one minute and then their gone
They remind me of me and you
What did you do?
What did I do?

Determination in those eyes
Where has it gone? Has it said goodbye?
A lot as happened, but I'll stay by your side

Give me a smidge of confidence
Give me a speck of something that makes sense
Give me an idea of dependency
Give me a dash of loyalty
Loyalty (loyalty)

I could save my lonely soul for you
But the feeling in my heart can't follow through
(Can't follow, can't follow through)
You can give your broken heart to me
Cause you know that I'll stay with you
And that's why they call me loyalty

Time stands still when you're with me
How can i make you see?
Your crazy antics make me want to scream
Your name so loud 'til my throat starts to bleed

--

I could save my lonely soul for you
But the feeling in my heart can't follow through
You can give your broken heart to me
'Cause you know that I'll stay with you
And that's why they call me loyalty

I could save my lonely soul for you
But the feeling in my heart can't follow through
(Can't follow, can't follow through)
You can give your broken heart to me
Cause you know that I'll stay with you
That's why they call me, that's why they call me

I could save my lonely soul for you
But the feeling in my heart can't follow through
(Can't follow, can't follow through)
You can give your broken heart to me




Cause you know that I'll stay with you
And that's why they call me loyalty

Overall Meaning

The first verse of "Loyalty" by AcoustiMandoBrony describes a scene where the singer is flying high in the sky while the person they are singing about is on the ground walking by. The singer seems to have the ability to control the weather as they say they could clear the sky in 10 seconds. However, despite being up so high, they wish that the person they're singing about was with them. The chorus mentions that the singer values loyalty above all else and asks for a "smidge of confidence," a "speck of something that makes sense," an "idea of dependency," and a "dash of loyalty." The second verse begins with a juxtaposition of bright sun and pouring rain, which the singer compares to their relationship. The singer then mentions that they've noticed a loss of determination in the person they're singing about, but they still promise to stay by their side.


The overall message of the song seems to be about longing for a deeper connection with someone and valuing loyalty in a relationship. The singer is willing to give their "lonely soul" to the other person but admits that they struggle to follow through on their feelings. They also express a desire for the other person to return their loyalty.

I am asking for small amounts of confidence and logic, as well as some ideas of how to depend on someone, and a little bit of loyalty. All of these are important traits, especially loyalty.


I could save my lonely soul for you But the feeling in my heart can't follow through (Can't follow, can't follow through) You can give your broken heart to me Cause you know that I'll stay with you That's why they call me loyalty Loyalty (loyalty)
I am willing to dedicate my life to you, but my heart doesn't agree. However, I want you to give me your broken heart, because I won’t leave you alone in your darkest moments. This is why I am considered loyal, and it is a very important trait.


The sun shines bright, yet the rain pours on Rainbows here one minute and then their gone They remind me of me and you What did you do? What did I do?
The weather is very unpredictable, just like our relationship. The rainbows come and go very quickly, just like our happy moments. I’m not sure what went wrong between us, and I don’t know whose fault it is.


Determination in those eyes Where has it gone? Has it said goodbye? A lot as happened, but I'll stay by your side
I used to see a lot of determination in your eyes, but it seems to have disappeared. I’m not sure where it went, but I will continue to support you through thick and thin.


Time stands still when you're with me How can i make you see? Your crazy antics make me want to scream Your name so loud 'til my throat starts to bleed
When I am with you, time seems to stop. I want you to understand how I feel about you. Sometimes, your behavior drives me crazy, and I feel like shouting your name until my throat hurts.


I could save my lonely soul for you But the feeling in my heart can't follow through (Can't follow, can't follow through) You can give your broken heart to me Cause you know that I'll stay with you And that's why they call me loyalty
Again, I am willing to devote myself to you, but my heart isn’t cooperating. Even so, I want you to give me your broken heart, because I will be loyal to you and stay with you no matter what.

It warms my heart, listening to this, reading the comments and seeing that people are still here. The show has ended, the fandom too, for the most part, but the memories we made were real. The lessons we have learned were real. Thank you, everyone.

@possessingpatheticloser1935

I'll second that!

@damasta427

Your here forever <3

@CeladonHairExtraordinaire

100% right on!

@StormsparkPegasus

I disregarded the ending of the show (along with the last season), so I still consider the future an open book. I no longer consider myself a member of "the fandom" because of fundamental disagreements, but I am just as much of a fan as I've always been. Nothing is going to change for me going forward. And I am still active in a specific subset of the fandom.

I love how the lyrics are really personal and heartfelt, despite Rainbow Dash not really being known for that kind of stuff. This song isn't about the Rainbow Dash that's projected out into the world, it's about the Rainbow Dash within.

I can't believe it's been over 10 years. I remember listening to this for the Nth time in early 2013, writing fanfiction, going to my first pony convention, and thinking: "Man, this is going to be my Year Of Pony." Now it's been over a decade of pony, and I'm still coming back here for that hit of feels.

@hopeshineseternal

I actually really love the lyrics of this song. "I could save my lonely soul for you, but the feeling in my heart can't follow through" in particular hits home for me. Not to mention the way it paints Rainbow Dash's character perfectly, with added dimensions that people often miss.
