Let's kick off 2013 on the right note with a new song!  And one where I try this whole vocal thing again, to boot!

This song originally started as me just messing around with using clock ticking sound effects as percussion, and I eventually made up this concept of the song being based on Discord taunting Twilight and co. as they scramble to save Equestria from chaos.  I kinda made the song sound like something from a game, what with the use of 8bit-esque synths, and I think that's a style I'm gonna have to revisit one of these days.

Yeah, I tried the whole vocal thing again.  I'd like to believe I did a better job with it than previous attempts, but feel free to tell me if I'm doing something wrong.  I'm still trying to figure out how to integrate vocals into my songs, and it's been slow work to say the least, so I'm open to any and all criticism.

On another note...I think 2013 is gonna be a good year for me as a musician.  I've started to better figure out how to do this stuff, and I have some VERY interesting projects in the works, as well as beginning to foray into the realm of collaborations.  Let's just hope, shall we?

LYRICS

Look into the skies, and you're in for a surprise
For the ruler of chaos is back for his reprise
You all look confused, I don't think you understand
Haven't you ever thought that order's just a bit bland?

That's exactly why I'm here, to put a little bit of spice
Into all of your lives with some wonderful sights
I might be insane, I might be twisted in the brain
But reality is nothing but a ball and a chain

So come on, break free, give into the unreal
It's taking over now that I've broken my seal
Either embrace the calamity, embrace the lack of sanity
Or you'll soon become just another little casualty

You think that you can stop me?  Surely you jest
Do you fully understand who you're even up against?
I'm the spirit of disharmony, not a silly clown
I ruled this kingdom once, and now I'm taking back the crown

Why are you even trying when you know you're good as dead?
You're all nothing but puppets and I'm pulling on your threads
I've already won, it should be clear as day
And if the game is over, why do you still play?

Take a look around, and accept your new fate
You've lost, plain and simple, it's check and mate
If you still can't see, you really must be blind
Maybe the only way to show you is to break your little mind

Snap of the fingers, and your fears come alive
It's your misery, your heartbreak, that keeps me alive
Your friends are all gone, but they're your friends no more
They're not the same people that you thought you knew before

Shut up, already!  Stop calling me a liar!
You'll close your big mouth once you're dangled over fire
If you want to stay alive, here's the optimal plan
Run, little filly, run while you still can!
