about

I initially wanted to make a cover of September, but upon listening to the lyrics, it felt too dark for there to be no cause or resolve. So I eventually made a sequel instead.

lyrics

LYRICS:

Verse 1
You look down at me from up on high,
While I gaze up at the October sky
And it looks nothing like anything I know.
I see those eyes and that calloused smirk
You laugh manically about your work.
Well it's a pity there's nopony here for you to show.

Chorus 1
I see no other way. This crime has got to pay.
The past cannot be undone. This war is far but won.
Imma bring you down.

Acting 1
Evdog: You! You're the one that did all this!
AutoJack: *chuckle* Yep, isn't it wonderful?
Evdog: All those ponies. They had lives. They had dreams and aspirations. And you took that away from them!
AutoJack: Well, what are you gonna do about it? Heh, what CAN ya do about it, ya flea-bitten mutt?

Verse 2
I thought you'd do this right from the start,
You lost your head after you lost your heart.
Only I foresaw just how far you could fall
(Stop him! He's going to kill us all! Stop him!)
I told them all exactly what you'd do.
Nopony thought that what I said was true.
So I dug my hole as you went and built your wall.

Chorus 1

Chorus 2
You are beyond remorse, you dark maniacal horse.
Their lives will not be in vain. Here's to the end of your reign.
Imma bring you down.

Quotes
Martin Luther King Jr. (spoken by himself): "We can no longer afford to worship the god of hate or bow before the altar of retaliation".
Honore De Balzac (spoken by Sellyme: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UInA-iwzymI): "Hatred is a vice of narrow souls; they feed it with all their meanness, and make it a pretext for sordid tyranny."
C.S. Lewis (spoken by this guy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aMW5UMg_lEA): "Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive".

Acting 2
Evdog: Oi, You!
AutoJack: What? You again?
Evdog: Yeah, that's right. Your time is over. These stones will your be your tomb.
AutoJack: AHAHAHAHA AHAHAHAHA You joking, right? I set a bomb off and it couldn't knock over this baby.
Evdog: Well, you're not the only one who can make explosives, y'know. I've been doing a lot of digging recently. Kind of... right underneath where you're standing. You see this button? Have a guess what it does.
AutoJack: ...what? NO!
Evdog: YES!
*Explosion*
Evdog: There! how you like that!? AHAHAHAAHAHAH ...wait...
AutoJack: *background laughter*
Evdog: No! Get out of my head! I am not like you! I am not like you! ...I ...I am like you, aren't I? I'm the monster. No, no, this ends now! No more violence; no more death. I'm going to go to a place where I can't hurt anypony anymore.

Verse 3
Don't think I'll ever know about your fate.
Hide underground before too late.
Or the world will tie your destruction to my own.
I look around and I want to cry
Deep beneath this October sky
As I realize that I am completely alone.
