    Here come more lyrics. This time, it's a rock cover that uses some aspects of the layout of Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata in C# minor (1st movement). This one's about the fall of Nightmare Moon.


    The Fall (Nightmare Moon)

    (Beethoven Moonlight Sonata intro for 3 bars, on fourth lead into 6/8 Medium-Hard Rock)

    (Medium-Hard Rock for 4 bars then lighten)

    Verse 1
    Days, turned into to months
    Months, into years
    Years into decades
    To centuries and then a millennium

    Verse 2
    Darkness filled her heart
    A clash with the light
    A simple request
    Turned into a vengeance of fire

    Chrorus
    It was her plan
    Spoiled by light
    The sun and the moon collide, a fight
    For whom shall reign the skies above
    The night, shall reign forever more

    (Short guitar solo for 2 bars)

    Verse 3

    Twas told the legend
    The mare, in the moon
    Nightmare moon, she was called
    Brought fear and terror in the night

    Verse 4

    Just a simple request
    Rejected by her older sis
    Forced herself, unto the throne
    Banished to the moon

    Chrorus
    It was her plan
    Spoiled by light
    The sun and the moon collide, a fight
    For whom shall reign the skies above
    The night, shall reign forever more

    (Guitar Solo for eight bars then lighten)

    (Spoken)

    Elements of Harmony (with an echo effect)
    To end the night of terror
    Take six
    Who are the chosen

    (Getting a little heavier)

    (Spoken)

    Applejack, you are the one
    The one who everypony can trust
    You assured Twilight in fear’s eyes
    You…represent honesty

    (Short medium heavy riff and guitar solo for 2 bars)

    Fluttershy, you are the one
    The one who can be shy at times
    But, you have compassion overloading as you tamed the beast
    You…represent kindness

    (Short medium heavy riff and guitar solo for 2 bars)

    Pinkie Pie, you are the one
    The one who spreads the spirit of joy wherever you go
    You laughed away the fears and in fear’s eye
    You…represent laughter
    (Short medium heavy riff and guitar solo for 2 bars)

    Rarity, you are the one
    Despite your love for gems and riches
    You gave up your lovely tail to a serpent in need
    You…represent generosity

    (Short medium heavy riff and guitar solo for 2 bars)

    Rainbow Dash, you are the one
    The one everypony can depend on
    You stayed with your friends instead of following your hearts desire
    You…represent loyalty

    Bridge

    And once combined the 5 elements
    Produce the one to end it all
    The true meaning is that…
    Friendship is magic! (hold “magic” for 4 bars)

    Chorus (Reprise)

    It was her plan
    To rule the skies
    No longer her great destiny
    It was the fall
    Of Nightmare Moon! (hold “moon” for 2 bars)

    (Chorus riff chord progression for 2 bars)

    (Last 6 bars of Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata 1[SUP]st[/SUP] movement, guitar solo over these bars, then begin to slow arriving at the end of the 6[SUP]th[/SUP] bar. Take last 6 notes of the third to last bar and slow them down. Hold last note with a heavy C# minor chord. Roll cymbals with Nightmare Moon’s cry, Crescendo to two final hits. Cut on final hit)

    (Rainbow Dash: Awww yeah!)
