A augmentedA
I remember all those centuries ago,
E MajorE
Back when the world was new
A augmentedA
It seemed so flawless, now I know
E MajorE
That no perfection's ever true.
A augmentedA
I once considered you a friend,
E MajorE
Before my world went straight to hell
A augmentedA
The scars you've cause will never mend
E MajorE
But then, you know that all too well.
D MajorD
All too well...
A augmentedA
Oh, Celestia, my dear,
E MajorE
We used to laugh, we use to play
A augmentedA
But now the world has changed, I fear
E MajorE
And all because of that one day.
D MajorD
That one day...
A augmentedA
Its truth seems like mythology
E MajorE
For none recall except us two,
A augmentedA
Now misery belongs to me
E MajorE
And perfect bliss resides in you.
A augmentedA
The choices that I made perhaps
E MajorE
Were not the wisest, yes it's true
A augmentedA
But even so, we used to laugh,
E MajorE
Why did it have to end so soon?
A augmentedA
Oh, Celestia, you were my rock
E MajorE
Before the fates led us astray
A augmentedA
But now on different roads we walk
E MajorE
I wish that you would turn my way.
D MajorD
Just turn my way...
A augmentedA
You chose to live your royalty
E MajorE
And left your dear old friend behind,
A augmentedA
All alone, I'm never free.
E MajorE
For I only wish that you'd be mine,
A augmentedA
I thought we were a perfect pair,
E MajorE
I thought those days of bliss were real,
A augmentedA
I guess you never really cared,
E MajorE
And now Chaotic hatred's all I feel.
D MajorD
It's all I feel...
E MajorE
You left me helpless, I consented,
D MajorD
Turned to spreading fear across the earth
E MajorE
Do I regret? Have I repented?
B minorBm
As if my words hold any worth.
A augmentedA
Oh, Celestia, my love,
E MajorE
We used to laugh, we used to play
A augmentedA
But now you rule the sun above.
E MajorE
I guess there's one thing left to say:
A augmentedA
Celestia, I hate you so,
E MajorE
My days have darkened, dull and gray
A augmentedA
I wanted you with all my soul
E MajorE
