Looking back the way we saw it
We were never awake
We’ve dared to dream outside our own
With our hearts at stake

Equestria’s flame burned out
Spark ember in the dead of night
We are a waiting room for the stars
Waiting for the tender of flight

Elusive to your dismay
You find you’re burnt from it all

The shadows you’ve confined
Feel the pain. Your guilty crime

Darling, fallen to faithlessness
Let me show you my heart
You are my ember
A waiting room for the stars
A waiting room for the stars

We were lost and then found
And still we live in consequence
You are my ember
A waiting room for the stars
A waiting room for the stars
If you never learn to spread your wings
You could never learn what it means to fall

A candle in the wind will always fade
Lest you shelter, protect its flame

And as you nurture your spirit, dear
Your audience will do the same

Elusive to your dismay
You find you’re burnt from it all

The shadows you’ve confined
Feel the pain. Your guilty crime

Darling, fallen to faithlessness
Let me show you my heart
You are my ember
A waiting room for the stars
A waiting room for the stars

We were lost and then found
And still we live in consequence
You are my ember
A waiting room for the stars
A waiting room for the stars
