Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The sun came up after a long night.
Everyone was celebrating Celestia’s victory over the Nightmare.
But she was still distraught with the entrapment of her sister.

I will come back for you.
Just give me a day or two.
After all this neglect
I could never forget you.

She looked towards her citizens
And watched them all enjoy themselves again.
And for the first time in a while,
Celestia felt good.

I will come back for you.
Just give me a week or two.
After all of our neglect
I would never forget you.

The citizens all praised Her name
And celebrated the sun.
But for the first time in a while,
The power felt good.

I will come back for you
Just give me a month or two.
After all my neglect
I should never forget you.

The ponies kneeled before her
As they always did in the past.
For the first time in a while,
The unitary control felt good.

I will come back for you
Just give me a year or two…
After all my regrets
I can’t help but forget
You.

…But you must simply stop reading those dusty old books.
Your new assignment:
Go out there and make some friends.





I had a friend once.

Overall Meaning

We did everything together.
But as we grew older, we drifted apart.
Eventually, we lost touch completely.


These lyrics tell the story of Celestia, a ruler who has just defeated an evil force and saved her kingdom. Despite her victory, she is still troubled by the fact that her sister is trapped. She promises to return for her sister but needs time. As she looks at her citizens enjoying themselves, her neglected duty to her sister weighs heavy on her. She promises again to return for her sister in a week, then a month, then a year. However, as time passes, she forgets about her sister and becomes more focused on her power and control over the ponies. In the end, she is reminded by a friend to let go of the past and make new connections instead of dwelling on the old.


The song highlights the age-old dilemma of power versus responsibility and the cost of maintaining control. Celestia starts off as a just ruler with good intentions but over time becomes too entrenched in her role and forgets about her commitments to her loved ones. It's only through the reminder from her friend that she realizes the cost of her power and the importance of friendships.

For a meme game this soundtrack is something unbelievably top notch

@thecubedirector

The fun cannot be halted; and yes, music must be atmospheric for a game of this calibre.
