Ten Fold (metal)

I personally hate this intro....I started on this a while back, and it's a completely different direction from where I usually go.
I thought it would sound alright, so rather than scrap it, I finished it.
It has more than one meaning, and I left it incredibly short.
It just seemed like it would get old, if I put in two verses.
The metal fanatics should enjoy it.

Ten Fold
05/01/07

[-----Intro-----]

Left to wander in a desolate world,
Plagued by eternal darkness and damnation.
Cast out by the one above him, and cursed
By the ones below him. His fate was sealed
the moment he conspired. His pain will last
a lifetime, and no water will ever come to quench his thirst.
Forever, will he walk the earth a monster.
He is hated by man - And forsaken by God.

Funny.....I find I can relate.

[-----End Intro-----]

[-----Chorus-----]

Everything that you've done to me,
I will pay back ten fold, spare a fourth

Keep the rest for myself,
And share it when I think you need some more

I know - that you don't - have
Any more reserves

I know - that you don't - have
What I'm looking for

[-----End Chorus-----]

[-----Verse 1-----]

It's not wise to take, from a man
Who has nothing left to give, and all to gain
In the world

Put him down so far that, he can't get up
So he struggles to hold on, to what he knows

But what if all he knows is how to kill,
To survive?

A man's, primal instinct will always take hold
And deliver him from the law that he used to adore

[-----End Verse-----]

[-----Chorus-----]

Everything that you've done to me,
I will pay back ten fold, spare a fourth

Keep the rest for myself,
And share it when I think you need some more

I know - that you don't - have
Any more reserves

I know - that you don't - have
What I'm looking for

[-----End Chorus-----]

[-----Outro-----]

I need ten fold of everything

I'll take ten fold of everything

I need ten fold of everything

I'll take ten fold of everything

(screamed)

Then more (x2)

[-----End Outro-----]
