So yeah. Happy Halloween. Tis a scary night. Boo.

I've had this idea in my head for a long time and I just got around to making it. Now I have made it. And it came out alright, but I don't want to work on it any more, it's annoying me. So here it is.

I'm going to go work on homework right now, because screw college, big expensive educational pain in the ass that it is. I hope you all don't have to suffer the same fate (just kidding stay in school kiddies).

Have a safe and happy Nightmare Night everyone, look both ways before you cross a threshold or a black cat, and if I see anyone out there with toilet paper I'm getting them with the garden hose. Seriously. THE DAMN GARDEN HOSE.

Trick or treat? Have a hoof. /)

LOTS O WORDS
Deep in the pages of history
Lies a shadow hiding in a mystery
A late night story buried far away
Until it once again sees the light of day

And when the little colts and fillies turn out all lights
And tell a story of a factory as black as night
The luxury of rainbows comes at a price
Just ignore the screams, and don't think twice

You've proven to yourself and to all of us
That you're not fit to fly like a Pegasus
You don't even deserve those wings you bear
When you stand beside a legend, you don't even compare
All of the failures help to fuel success
In the bloody and visceral weather game of Chess
And just because you've disappointed you'll pay the price
Now accept your fate and die in the Pegasus Device

Phantom screams echo through the ruined facility
A horrible silence builds an eerie tranquility
The souls of many innocent fill the air
And the hope that they all died with scattered here and there

A mighty machine built within the wake
Of a long dead dream, little demon awake
The citizens sleep, never quite knowing when
The device will reawaken, hungry again

You've proven to yourself and to all of us
That you're not fit to fly like a Pegasus
You don't even deserve those wings you bear
When you stand beside a legend, you don't even compare
All of the failures help to fuel success
In the bloody and visceral weather game of Chess
And just because you've disappointed you'll pay the price
Now accept your fate and die in the Pegasus Device

I don't even remember my past
I don't remember who I used to be
I don't even remember my friends of old
I don't remember my destiny

My mane is purple and my coat is orange
What I've become? I have no idea.
I only know one simple thing
The name they gave me: Absentia

You've proven to yourself and to all of us
That you're not fit to fly like a Pegasus
You don't even deserve those little wings you bear
When you stand beside a legend, you don't even compare
All of the failures help to fuel success
In the bloody and visceral weather game of Chess
And just because you've disappointed you'll pay the price
Now accept your fate and die in the Pegasus Device

I don't even recognize your rainbow mane
When you hide it behind that mask of shame
You don't even deserve those wings you bear
You used to be a legend, a righteous mare
All of the failures help to fuel success
In the bloody and visceral weather game of Chess
And then you sit upon your throne and you roll your diamond dice
And you send us all to die in your Pegasus Device

In the Rainbow Factory, where fears and horrors come true
In the Rainbow Factory, where not a single soul gets through
In the Rainbow Factory, where failures pay their toll
Now I've awoken, and I'm taking back control

[Kmn]

2 million everyone! Slyph definitely deserves it.

[alcarlberg]

Nobody:
A Random Brony in 2013: *rips the most devious, soul-devouring, toe-curling, mouth watering keyboard shred known to mankind*

[Crystal_]

these songs are the only times you can hear the word "rainbow" and be intimidated

[AlexandreBugado]

"the Avengers was the biggest crossover"
SlyphStorm: "The Pegasus Device, where your fears and horrors come true. Now I've awoken, and I'm taking back control"

[missingcoffee]

The nostalgia is hitting like a sack of bricks

[salt_]

So the songs for Rainbow Factory are:
Rainbow Factory
Awoken
Pegasus Device
right?

[dreadangel]

Using the melodies from the og Rainbow Factory song but adding that echo to them like they're actually playing in an old and abandoned facility is fucking genius

[SpaghettiNerd]

3:05 all the way to the end

I’m literally sobbing because I haven’t listen to this in like 2 years and the nostalgia hit me hard :’)

[SlyphStorm]

For anyone who has been asking for the background artwork of this song, there's now a link in the description. Sorry for taking so long! <3

[thegreenberretwearingbrony]

Listened to this at age 10 battling cancer and building legos.

And here I am at age 21 still listening to it while assembling guns

[ackdemonn]

I recently found who they are talking about when they say “my mane is purple my coat is orange” they are referring to Scootaloo who couldn’t fly still to this day can’t fly because her wings can’t grow to full size

[ZestWagon]

For those wondering what "Absentia" means ~ ~ Absentia is Latin for absence. In absentia, a legal term, is Latin for "in the absence" or "while absent".(In) absentia may also refer to:
◾Award in absentia
◾Declared death in absentia
◾Election in absentia
◾Excommunication in absentia
◾Graduation in absentia
◾In absentia health care, the provision of healthcare in the absence of a personal contact
◾Trial in absentia

[shadowflame]

My mane is purple and my coat is orange
What I've become? I have no idea.

11/10 Best rhyme ever

[BronyDanceParty]

Slyph, any method to talk to you privately? I wanna talk about a video project I have in mind.

[torazely]

This song. This video. This is what has inspired, created, and directed my online persona. I'm not a brony, but the fact that the Fandom can create such art like this, powerful enough to effect even people who don't have the context, is something i respect. This song is amazing.

[Koru_Nai]

"You have beautiful eyes..."

[callistocryptic]

I cannot believe i missed the 8 year anniversary of this song although i LEGITIMATELY listen to it whenever i play my spotify

[buggart]

I love how you incorporated Dash's thoughts in how far she has fallen. You can clearly see that she already lost her soul and maybe also her element as well... Then comes Scooterloo and destroys Dash even more when her #1 idol found out that she was the mastermind behind the genocide... I love this...

[stewqfe]

Dude.
I listen to this everyday.
No joke bro.
It's too awesome.
It's taking over my brain I swear to god

[dc]

How to enjoy this song better:
Step 1.) Insure headphones are plugged in (get a decent pair)
Step 2.) turn volume to the max
Step 3.) Profit.
