lyrics
[Koa]
The cards are stacked against me
That much is clear
They'd all just love to watch me
Disappear
I'm feeling kinda disenchanted
A puff of smoke, their wish is granted
My powerful and great
Turns colourless and grey
The ultraviolet shines over the blue
I'm seeing stars
It's no illusion, I'm falling apart
But the curtains hide the truth
[Luck]
She smiled at me softly
Her words so kind
But I know better, I know, I know
It's all a lie
I'm sorry, Princess, please forgive me
It's not just you who will outlive me
[Shobie]
When I look upon myself
In the mirror I see my eyes
Filled with emptiness I felt
All I can do is sit and cry
Why’d they drive me away
I just wanted to entertain
Fine then, have it your way
I hope they know they caused this pain
Simple mare, talent right
With no despair and magic lights
To show and make ponies nights
But all it ever brings is strife
Life is asinine unless a casket pulls a massive heist
Relaxing time at last I’ll find a lasso trap and then be fine
Try my best it’s not enough this time
Always bested and one upped in life
Seems my quest to be on top’s a crime
You got your wish, I’ll flatten the monitor line
The cards are stacked against me
That much is clear
They'd all just love to watch me
Disappear
I'm feeling kinda disenchanted
A puff of smoke, their wish is granted
My powerful and great
Turns colourless and grey
The ultraviolet shines over the blue
I'm seeing stars
It's no illusion, I'm falling apart
But the curtains hide the truth
[Luck]
She smiled at me softly
Her words so kind
But I know better, I know, I know
It's all a lie
I'm sorry, Princess, please forgive me
It's not just you who will outlive me
[Shobie]
When I look upon myself
In the mirror I see my eyes
Filled with emptiness I felt
All I can do is sit and cry
Why’d they drive me away
I just wanted to entertain
Fine then, have it your way
I hope they know they caused this pain
Simple mare, talent right
With no despair and magic lights
To show and make ponies nights
But all it ever brings is strife
Life is asinine unless a casket pulls a massive heist
Relaxing time at last I’ll find a lasso trap and then be fine
Try my best it’s not enough this time
Always bested and one upped in life
Seems my quest to be on top’s a crime
You got your wish, I’ll flatten the monitor line

-
CONGRATS, YOU WERE TOO LATE: A 10 YEAR RETROSPECTIVE
by TCBGod-tier sound design and completely re-contextualized familiar samples make this record a beautifully chaotic dreamscape. TCB is a force to be reckoned with.
go to album -
An absolute unhinged soup; equal parts dorky and cocky, competent and stupid, catchy and raucous.
go to album -
Ion Fury (Official Soundtrack) Extended Edition
by Jarkko RotstenA delicously 90s soundtrack that works just as well for blowing up androids (cyborgs? robots??) as it does for instrumental background music.

Love this album! Osoch's An Eclipsed Land is an FOE masterpiece, showing the heart of the FOE world in every story set there.
