"Silence" (A Fluttershy Song) AshleyH

Hello! I'm not dead. Sorry for such the delay in uploads, youtube has had me feeling weird lately. Just with the fandom getting smaller and the community I used to love changing, it's been hard to process. That's what geared me to make this song in the first place, along with using my own experiences and feelings for a little extra piece. Think of it as a vent piece that will be two parts. (as stated at the end of the video)
This part mainly focuses around the idea of staying quiet and out of the way so that someone is not rejected or shunned, to put on a happy face and ignore that you're not doing okay in order to please everyone else. To become the person everyone wants you to be, even though what you want is the exact opposite. Hence why it's called "Silence"
The second part will be called "Louder" and focuses on the other side of the coin, wanting to speak out and be heard inside of hiding in the background.
The pieces compliment each other and I hope you will listen to both when they come out. Both songs are very personal to me.
Vocals and Lyrics: Ashley H

Instrumental: • - ERROR「niki ft. Lily」...
Original: ERROR (vocaloid)
Lyrics:
Silence
(Piano version)
There is nothing wrong you see
For I pulled away for me
Shut myself inside for the quiet
And as I hear the laughter through the walls
My own are easy to recall
Yes, everything now has changed
And the thoughts do just remain
Of a time that was far more simple
But as the people start to walk away
I’m just glad that they even came
Or still remember my old name
There’s no time for breaking down
See my smile, I’m fine now
There’s no need to disagree
I’m breathing
See, I'm breathing
But when you take a step closer
Please don’t mind that I will take one back
The only thing that you'll hear is
Silence
I have learned throughout the years
It’s easy to cover tears
When you don’t ever acknowledge
The moments when you are the most alone
And the facts you should have always known
Yet wondering eyes will set the scene
Who will pass and who will leave
So it’s always best being quiet
Becoming who they always want to see
Even if I want to flee
So I won’t ever disagree
There’s no time for breaking down
See my smile, I’m fine now
There’s no need to disagree
I’m breathing
Still breathing
But when you take a step closer
Please don’t mind that I will take one back
And the only thing that you hear is
Silence
Even if I hate myself
Even if I love myself
Even if everything's falling
I’m breathing now
Please just look the other way
Just assume that I’m okay
I’m not ok..
I can not be breaking down
They’ll all watching, I’m fine now
There’s no need to disagree
That I’m hurting
I’m not hurting
But when you take a step closer
Please don’t mind that I will take one back
And the only thing that you hear is…
Wait, why are you leaving?
Please don’t leave me now
There no time for breaking down
I’ll be better for you now
I won’t ever disagree
See, I’m smiling
So you want me
These tears that appear in my eyes
Please ignore them and stay by my side
I promise that you’ll only hear
Silence

This song is telling me to never be ashamed of you are. And using Fluttershy completes it. She was always quiet, shy, timid but was never ashamed of expressing herself. She was strong❤️

You have good words.

Can I just say, It takes serious skill to hit high notes while also singing as Fluttershy! Ashley is a queen!

[@AuraNova-AshleyH]

That’s why this took so long to finish *cries* it was a challenge. Thank you so much! You saying that really means a lot

[@MercSamurai09]

@@AuraNova-AshleyH hey that was kickass.

[@DemonHunter-yk6xh]

You know what the sad part is....the song's Ashley H has planned is true. The MLP fandom is changing, and their is some people who are changing in ways that are toxic, that the fandom took them down. Despite this....their are some thing's that the fandom gave. I've made some of the best Fan Fic's stories that were super good, and even though the Fandon is changing....people are still writing, and still going....I don't think G4 will ever leave....there are some thing's we'll continue to create from it....but it will be something we'll cherish forever, like the Original Godzilla series, Transformer's Prime, Star War's the Clone Wars Series, Teen Titans, MLP G4, and many....many more. Amazing song Ashley.....good to see any of your vids again, and keep up the good work

[@LnEREcruit_]

There are still plenty of gen4 fans out there this isnt the end, im sure this beautiful talented community wont let gen4 dissapear... Gen5 looks nice but gen4 is still in my mind heart and soul. Beautiful singing queen dorito i feel the emotion in your voice 💖

After listening to this song I felt many emotions because Fluttershy is my favorite pony and this song is amazing. I want to say keep up the good work and keep being creative. Also this song gives off Evanescence vibes and I want to say that no matter what. I’ll be a fan of Gen 4 till the day I die.

[@Max541000]

Being afraid of seeing people change and leave...making everything possible to keep them, even if it means making things you do not want...I can only imagine how hard it is... But, just like Fluttershy, don't be ashamed of expressing who YOU are, because this channel is YOURS ! :) I'm sure there will always be poeple who like what you're doing. :) Just like I'm sure there will always be people who care about you, about what you feel. ;) I really hope you'll get better ^^

[@gianniespinoza446]

I havn't watched my little pony in years. I don't even know what's going on in the show anymore. But this song hit me hard. I can relate to this so much. I have been needing a little cry for a while now. Thank you

[@BlueSpring3]

I want to believe, the fandom getting smaller isn't necessairly a bad thing, yet it sometimes seems the wrong ones leave the fandom. I'm very glad we still have you around, Ashley. ^^

[@aetherlight_melody]

I'm always amazed by how much raw emotion you can carry with just your voice and a piano! Absolutely fantastic!

[@AJponyAPschannel]

You know, I feel this song a lot. My better friends understand that because of my autism I can say offensively things without meaning what I meant, but I’ve had friends that made me feel like I had to walk on eggshells. Which in of itself isn’t a bad thing, I want to not say offensive things, but I do still have a fear of saying something wrong which, more often than not, especially in irl, to be more quiet >.>

[@mlpmania5424]

This was amazing, you did so great on this. I read the description, and I get what you mean. I’m glad I’m not the only one who feels like that. I’m a huuuuge G4 fan, and I’ve been really scared lately that now that g4 ended, the fandom’s gonna fall apart. Right now, people say “Don’t worry, I’ll always be a G4 fan.” But even after they say that, some of those people (Ponytubers, etc.) left the fandom anyway. I can tell the fandom’s crumbling slowly, and I’m afraid soon there won’t be a huge brony community anymore like there used to be ): I’m so glad I’m not the only one that feels this way. Even with everything changing and people leaving, I really hope you never leave. 😊💞
