So yeah. Something Broke: The Continuing Tale Of Pinkie Pie & Ponycide:

http://soundcloud.com/mistarleadguitar/something-broke

Figured I'd post it here.

LYRICS!!!!

I. Let's begin

(Vocoder)
Here’s a story for your to hear
Of pony pain, and utter fear
Happiness is absent here

(Ethan Proulx)
Are you hungry?

II. Ponyville: All Is Normal

(Spoken)
Welcome to our little town!
The stories here are never down.
The happiness floats all around,
And little could go wrong.
Well, not to long ago, it seems,
Something changed within this dream;
Maybe we’re just losing steam,
I mean, It’s been so long...
But here’s a story, a tale you see,
About one which we call “Pinkie”,
And though the details are bleary,
I’ll keep you informed with this song.

Every pony, come look here:
Rainbow Dash is full of fear
For the upcoming event,
Something which she’d circumvent.
Talented young Pegasi,
Off to cloudsdale, in the sky.
Competition riding high;
So much that could go awry.
So her friends devised a plan
To assist her, lend a hand,
Be support within the crowd.
(Fluttershy just wasn’t loud)
“Help me chase away my fears”
“Help me chase away my fears”
“Help me chase away my fears”
“Help me chase away my fears”

III. Cloudsdale: Young Flyers Competition

She signed up, then we hit the town.
To calm her nerves, we walked around.
Visited the school, we saw the sights,
Ain’t trippin balls, that shit was tight!
So we made our way through the city,
Though rainbow dash still felt shitty.
Still we went around for things to see;
Ended up (in a rainbow factory),
Where rarity, that pompous bitch,
Decided, by some mental glitch,
That she would join the comp that night,
Forgetting poor young rainbow’s plight.
Short time later, we all sat,
Waiting for our favorite cat
To fin’lly make her trick debut;
If only we knew what we do…

IV. The Rainboom: Awakening

Rarity fell, and rainbow went after,
Picking up speed, the audience silent.
Rainbow dash sped till she reached the speed barrier;
Out came a ring, of colours so vibrant.
They always said that a rainboom was legend.
Pinkie, however, had seen it before,
Back at her home, when she was a filly.
Memories came back and horrors galore!

(Vocoder)
Next In Line
You're not fine
It's your Time
Time To Shine

What to do, I’m feeling kinda woozy!
I haven’t felt this since I was a filly.
Oh god, why did you ever do that, daddy.
Now I remember just how it has scarred me!
I’m paranoid about the ones around me!
Who’s gonna be the next to try to hurt me?
So much for happy, yeah, so much for Pinkie!
I feel something in me trying to break free.

V. Party Of One

(Spoken)
About a week later, Pinkie, in an attempt to make herself feel better, did what she did best, and threw a party, in this instance celebrating the birthday of her pet alligator. The party was swell, but the entire time she couldn’t help but notice that the ponies she called friends seemed almost tired of her antics. This caused Pinkie to become even more paranoid, as the following day she attempt to throw yet another party, this time in commemoration of the party from the night before. However, despite her best efforts, nopony seemed able, or for that matter willing, to attend. It was at this that Pinkie finally snapped.

Secrets and lies. Secrets and lies.
What are they doing, is it right before my eyes?
Secrets and lies. Secrets and lies.
I’m getting frantic, growing louder are my cries.
I’m getting tired of excuses and evasions
Why don’t they face me, just admit the situation?
What have I done, are they afraid my celebration
Will make them sick or make them dull or make them mad or make them sad or make them angry, make them frantic, make them crazy, make them loopy, make it painful, make it sickly, make it random, make it icky, break my mind and leave me twitchy, nothing left of poor old Pinkie! what has happened to me, tell me, daddy why’d you do that to me! NO!

What have I done? What have I done?
I’m left alone here, just a party of one! (just a party of one, bitches)
What have they done? This isn’t fun!
I should have known, I should have seen that this would come.
It’s all a matter of when they will come to tell me
That they despise me, that they never want to see me.
Well they can screw, It’s time for pinkie pie to be free!
Pinkamena, show your scars! Broken bones and broken hearts.
Give me, tell me one good reason, why I should give them a season, let alone an hour, minute, or a fraction of time in it, let me cling to reality, one last second, savored for me, looking for that one blue pony. RAINBOWDASH WAIT!

VI. The Final Straw

(Instrumental)

VII. Late Night Accident

(Narrator)
Later on, despite learning that her friends had good reason for keeping her in the dark, and overall meant no ill will against her, Pinkie still found herself wandering the streets of Ponyville. Almost everypony had gone to bed, and the moon was high in the sky, illuminating her way through the sleeping town. Pinkie was confused, she was lost, and more importantly, she was alone.

What am I to do?
Is it safe to say I’m through?
Ready for my end
No escape, can’t pretend
That everything is I wanted came true
So once again, I ask what can I do?
What am I to say
Who would listen, anyway?
Who is there for me?
No one takes me seriously!
I give and give, and they all use me
just like daddy did abuse me
13 days It took to find me
Left my home and life behind me
SOMEONE’S SNEAKIN UP BEHIND ME!

VIII. Hide The Body (Art Of Distress)

What have I done? What have I done?
I lost my focus, now this pony is gone…
What have I done? Party of one…
I’m all alone, this problem I cannot outrun
What do I do? What can I say?
I need a plan or else I’ll never make a day
Where can I go? I just don’t know!
It’s not the kind of thing that normal ponies know
I need to get rid of the evidence…
Somehow…

Step by step, checking every detail
Hook and knife, Bring the body down into the cellar
Struggle as I place her on the table
Frantic as I wonder if I’m able
To go through with all that I have planned
So far all my actions were unmanned
I’m under so much stress…

Bare the neck, make a deep incision
Smell the blood as it pours out upon the surface
Trying not to care for consequences
Knowing that I have no good defenses
Thinking hard of what I’m gonna make her
Though I know I’ll have to clean up later
Silly little pinkie, you’ve grown colder
Time for Pinkamina to take over
Finish up the job that we have started
Feed her to the vein and the coldhearted
Don’t expect to hear that much rejection
Everypony loves our main confection
(Make them cupcakes)
So sweet and tasty
(Cupcakes)
Don’t be too hasty
(Cupcakes)
And if they like them
(Cupcakes)
Then I’ll still make them
(Cupcakes)
I trust nopony
(Cupcakes)
They all are phony
(Cupcakes!)
I know my target
(Cupcakes)
I’ll never forget
This is all her fault!

…when I’m through with you, Rainbow Dash is gonna pay!

IX. Practice Makes Perfect (Crime)

(spoken)
The following morning, Pinkie put the cupcakes out for sale, like they were a regular product in the store, and hoped against hope that the customers approved. To her shock (as well as mine, to be honest), they went over extremely well with the ponies who bought them, to the point where they had completely sold out by the end of the lunch hour.

Strangely enough, the normally sickening thought of her peers unknowingly committing cannibalism pleased her. For the first time since Cloudsdale, Pinkie genuinely smiled, and by the end of the day, her once faked happy demeanor was replaced by the jubilant mannerisms that Pinkie was known for. She felt great, better than she had in a while, but…she knew that, if she was going to go through with her plan, she would have to prepare, and preparing meant repeating the process and practicing until she felt she was ready to take on the one who, in her mind, started it all.

The first pony she managed to get was a young filly named Twist. The second, about a week later, was a unicorn named holli dash. The third, a young Pegasus named Cloud Kicker. Several other ponies disappeared, and the residents of ponyville were none-the-wiser, until finally, about a month later, Pinkie felt that she was ready, and invited rainbow dash to help her in her shop...

X. And Now You Nap (HORRIBLE VOICE ACTING TIME!)

Pinkie (Left): So you ready to get started, Rainbow Dash? I’ve got everything all ready”
Rainbow Dash (Right): You betcha, Pinkie! So what do ya got planned? We gonna prank somepony? I got a couple of good ones I’ve been thinking about. Or maybe you got some stunts you think I should try? Or maybe…
Pinkie: Making cupcakes!
RD: Baking? Pinkie, you know I’m not good at baking. Remember the last time?
Pinkie: Oh, that’s not a problem at all. I only need your help making them. I’ll be doing most of the work.
RD: (pause) well, alright, I guess that’s ok. What exactly do you need me to do?
Pinkie: That’s the spirit. Here you go!
RD: (pause) Iiiii thought I was helping you bake
Pinkie: You will be. I made this one just for you before you got here.
RD: So, is this like taste testing or something?
Pinkie: Sorta
RD: (pause) Okay, now what?
Pinkie: Now. You take a nap.

XI. Cupcakes

Oh dash, I’m glad you’re here.
This job of mine is oh so dreary.
Don’t scream, not MUCH to fear
I’m glad it’s you, this makes me weary

I’m sure you’ll BRIGTHEN up my day
Before you really start to cry
Oh, just one more thing you should know
You’re gonna die.

Let me rip your deamons
Tear them out your throat
Cut your flesh and body
Till you’ll dead and bloat

You see, I’m really sorry,
Dashy, but there’s nothing I can do
I drew your number, that’s the rules here
Now your time with us is through
Still we have a little while
‘for your blood loss takes your life
We can chat about our past,
My god, my dear, you’ve turned so white!

What, is this fear I’m seeing?
What happened to the dash I knew?
As soon as your life is threatened
You will cower, it’s nothing new
So let’s get down to business
Better late than never I say
Oh, dashie, do you have any sickness?
Wait…once your cooked, it won’t matter anyway!

Oh did that hurt? What happened to the big, strong rainbow dash I knew? And for that matter, why do they call it a hack saw? You don’t hack with it: that’s what I was doing with the knife!

Can you scream just a little bit louder?
It chills my blood in the most satisfying of ways
Let me look into your eyes, let me see your soul
Show what it’s like, When a pony betrays
Rip the flank, and leave it to whiter
Oh dearie me, it seems I’ve been drawing this out a bit too long…
Let’s go, it’s time…

DIE!

XII. Ponyville: All Seems Normal

In the basement not a sound
Can be heard above the ground,
So the ponies up above
Can go on in "peace and love."
Down below, some tasty treats
Are being made for them to eat;
Granted, at a friend's expense.
What they don't know won't hurt them.
So down in the dimly lit,
Down comes knife, another hit,
Draw it forth, eviscerate;
Soon they'll be on someone's plate.
"Help me chase away my fears"
"Help me chase away my fears"
"Help me chase away my fears"
"Help me chase away m-"

Now that you've listened to the song, I figured I might let you know...

WARNING: THIS SONG IS OFTEN, AND I KID YOU NOT, REFERRED TO AS AN EXPERIENCE. IT HAS LEFT SOME PEOPLE FEELING SICK, SOME DISTURBED, SOME UNCOMFORTABLE, AND SOME INEXPLICABLY SEXUALLY EXCITED (LIKE NICK "BASCHFIRE" BASCH). LISTEN AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Hahaha I don't even go on here anymore
Seriously hit me up on skype or something, I'm rarely if ever online here.

There is no such thing as redundancy!

And this song is easily one of the best things created in this fandom.

You are the hero My Little Remix deserves, not the one it needs.
So we’ll hunt you. Because you can take it. Because you’re not our hero.
You’re a silent guardian of music, a watchful protector of songs.
A doctor of dissonance.
