Can't you remember?
The times we played together,
we rose up above the rest.
We made the world sing
with us, to us.
Now as they clamour at our feet
you forsake us..
just as the flower does the tree.
Your voice brought life to the music,
but you no longer listen to what we play.
The beauty of you brought fans to the stage,
but your too blind to see.
We've become but pawns in your game
if you'd only let in what the world screamed
Perhaps it wouldn't have to be this way..
Bye bye Beautiful

I kind of used options 1,2, and 4 it's hard to choose just one apparently.

That is awesome. My favorite line of the song is, "Did you ever listen to what we played" It was such a passionate and personal line and you could tell it just was dripping with Toumas's regret over what Tarja had done to the bad... it was very dramatic and I liked that you based this pretty much off of that... wise choice. Thank you for entering this fantastic entry and good luck.
