I wake recalling vivid dreams
A project that's missing something
Another Sunday with no sleep
But I have promises to keep
In tired forfeit my head falls
I cannot think straight while trapped between these walls
Lost in thought
Lacking inspiration
Deadline Looms
Why can I never get it just right
Why won't my muse play nicely
Why can't I think tonight
I get lost in the details
Until my determination fails
Take a step outside for a while
One step forward and two behind
My hope adopts a somber tone
But then I see one mare walking slowly all alone
Step by step
Piecing it together
Walk alone
Really such a lovely time of night
Meeting eyes with other ponies
Or gather some insight
Because in her eyes I see
That mare is just like me
Through all I've been through
And everything I know
I walk a lonely road
I got just what I need;
Illuminating clarity
No longer can I say
Inspiration is a rarity
