Written and performed by Araxie Haldane, inspired by the Gravity Falls episode "The Last Mabelcorn"

Lyrics:
The unicorn smiled when she saw you approaching her fountain
“Just one little test” she demanded and shot you a grin
“Just prove that your heart is as pure as the dew on the snowdrops
You’ll foul my glade if you’re wicked and tainted with sin.”

CHORUS:
Don’t fall for the lies of those cruel unicorns
You’ve been messy and mortal since the day you were born
If you try to be perfect it’s just gonna tear you apart.
They want you to break yourself down till you shatter
They’ll say that you’re selfish for knowing you matter
So be brave and tenacious and loving and joyful and smart
But forget pure of heart.

“My lady,” you said, “I can’t claim that my spirit is blameless,
But I try to do good and to help in the ways I know how
My heart’s filled with love for myself and the people around me
And I’ll strive to do more and be better and stronger, I vow!”

CHORUS

The unicorn scoffed and she drew back her head with a shudder.
“I knew it! You arrogant mortals have never been pure!
Perhaps if you’re humble enough you may gain some forgiveness
But you’ll never be perfect. You’re sullied, and I have no cure!”

CHORUS

“Well, what have you done then?” you said as you stood up and faced her
“Just sit in this glade telling people the things they can’t do.
There isn’t a deed or a person who’s ever been perfect
And I may not be pure but I've damn well done more good than you!”

CHORUS

If you’re careful you’ll notice that unicorns live all around us
You can tell by the smugly superior look in their eyes.
They’ll enumerate each of your flaws with distain in their voices.
They’ll all tell you you have to be perfect; they’ll all tell you lies!

Don’t fall for the lies of those cruel unicorns
We’ve been messy and mortal since the day we were born
If we try to be perfect it’s just gonna tear us apart.
I won’t let the world break me down till I shatter
I’d rather be selfish than think I don’t matter!
I’m brave and tenacious and loving and joyful and smart
But I’m not pure of heart.

Thank you so much to her for letting me cover this absolutely gorgeous song! I've been in love with it since I heard it a few months ago, and I finally got around to doing a cover of it. 

Lyrics:

So high on the windy grey cliffside
And under the mountains’ tall crest
As evening falls over the country
The ravens roost safe in their nest.
The ravens roost safe in their nest
The ravens roost safe in their nest
As evening falls over the country
The ravens roost safe in their nest.

Yet under a false-hearted hunter
The ravens were sorely oppressed
He chased them with hounds and with arrows
And took what he would from their nest.
And took what he would from their nest
And took what he would from their nest
He chased them with hounds and with arrows
And took what he would from their nest

Then up spoke a canny young raven
“My friends, we must rise and protest
We must drive off this false-hearted hunter
Till the ravens roost safe in their nest.”
The ravens roost safe in their nest.
The ravens roost safe in their nest.
We must drive off this false-hearted hunter
Till the ravens roost safe in their nest.

The ravens swooped down on the hunter
They plucked the gold chain from his breast
His hawks and his hounds were all scattered
So far from the ravens’ tall nest.
So far from the ravens’ tall nest.
So far from the ravens’ tall nest.
His hawks and his hounds were all scattered
So far from the ravens’ tall nest.

And now that the battle is over
So sweetly I’ll lay you to rest
And with the soft sky as your blanket
The ravens roost safe in their nest.
The ravens roost safe in their nest.
The ravens roost safe in their nest.
And with the soft sky as their blanket
The ravens roost safe in their nest.

The earlier version is the most common. It was penned by an unknown bard in the city of Raven’s Roost and spread to the surrounding countryside. Most bards who perform the song now are unaware of its origins. Less well-known is Variation B, which dates to shortly after the city fell. It never gained the popularity of the original ballad, and nowadays is very seldom sung.

But hunters, my darling, are cowards
Of this I can easily attest
So under the cover of darkness
He toppled the ravens’ tall nest.
He toppled the ravens’ tall nest.
He toppled the ravens’ tall nest.
So under the cover of darkness
He toppled the ravens’ tall nest.

And now that the battle is over
So sweetly I’ll lay you to rest
And with the soft earth as your blanket
The ravens sleep safe in their nest.
The ravens sleep safe in their nest.
The ravens sleep safe in their nest.
And with the soft earth as your blanket
The ravens sleep safe in their nest.
