Open Up Your Eyes (TMLPNM)

This is how Open Up Your Eyes goes in The My Little Pony Ninjago Movie.

[On the Nindroid MechDragon, Twilight and the Princesses are trying to get out of the cage they're trapped in]

[Celestia and Luna try to kick their way out]

[Twilight and Cadance blast the bars with magic to break them but to no avail]

[Then they see Pythor coming]

[The Princesses gasp]

[Pythor smiles]

Pythor P. Chumsworth: Aww, the "Princesses of the Sun, Moon, Love, and Friendship". With no friends! [laughs] And no way out.

Twilight Sparkle: Why are you doing this? You're a being, just like us.

Princess Celestia: Pythor. We can help you.

Princess Luna: But only if you let us.

Princess Cadance: It doesn't have to be like this.

[Pythor lunges and hisses at the princesses who yelp]

Pythor P. Chumsworth: I'm nothing like you! I'm more than you'll ever be.

[He paces around the cage]

[The Princesses frown]

Pythor P. Chumsworth: It's time you learned a lesson~

It's time that you understand~

Don't ever count on anybody else~

In this or any other land~

I once hoped for friendship~

To find a place among my kind~

But those were the childish wishes~

Of someone who was blind~

Open up your eyes~

See the world from where I stand~

Me, among the mighty~

You, caged at my command~

Open up your eyes~

Give up your sweet fantasy land~

It's time to grow up and get wise~

[Pythor gets Twilight to look at him via lifting her head]

Pythor P. Chumsworth: Come now, Alicorns, open up your eyes~

[We zoom in on Pythor's eye]

[A flashback]

[A young Pythor plays with his friends]

Pythor P. Chumsworth: We all start out the same~

With simple naive trust~

Shielded from the many ways~

That life's not fair or just~

[Pythor slithers away]

[He catches the ball]

[He comes face to face with the Skeleton Army]

Pythor P. Chumsworth: But then there comes a moment~

A simple truth that you must face~

If you depend on others~

You'll never find your place~

[The Skeletons attack]

[Pythor is injured]

[His friends look on in dismay, thinking he's dead and leave. The ancestors are sent into the Cursed Realm as Pythor looks on in horror]

Pythor P. Chumsworth: And as you take that first step~

Upon a path that's all your own~

You see it all so clearly~

The best way to survive is all alone~

[The flashback ends]

[The Princesses stare in horror]

[Pythor climbs a staircase]

Pythor P. Chumsworth: Open up your eyes~

See the world from where I stand~

Me, among the mighty~

You, caged at my command~

[He pulls a lever]

[The cage raises up]

[The Princesses continue to stare]

Pythor P. Chumsworth: Open up your eyes~

And behold the faded light~

It's time to grow up and get wise~

Come now, Alicorns, open up your eyes~

Open up your eyes!~

[The cage is raised to the top floor]

[The Princesses shield their eyes from the light]

[They suddenly stare in horror]

[Canterlot is covered in clouds]

[Twilight stares then looks down]

[Pythor joins them]

Twilight Sparkle: I'm so sorry you felt so alone.

Princess Celestia: How tragic your past has been.

Princess Luna: We can't imagine anything more tragic than that.

Princess Cadance: We're sorry, Pythor.

Pythor P. Chumsworth: I saw the truth. My "friends" abandoned me when times got tough. Looks like I'm not the only one.

[Twilight looks down]

[Cadance and Celestia look at each other]

[Luna just sighs]

Pythor P. Chumsworth: Face it, Princesses. Friendship has failed you all, too.

Twilight Sparkle: Friendship didn't fail me. I failed friendship.

Princess Celestia: No you didn't.

Princess Luna: You can still save Equestria.

Princess Cadance: But we just need to think of a way of doing it before we can.

[The Princesses comfortingly pat Twilight]
