The Curse of the Fold

[Verse 1] Give me your heart, and I'll show you how to feel Send me your soul, and you'll know what it is to be free We all need a deeper purpose, one that's true and bold The only thing that could hurt us is the curse of the fold [Verse 2] I once knew a man who had fire in his eyes Bloody right hand, he had taken his enemies' lives The past was his torture, the future held his hope Until he chose his fortune as the curse of the fold [Chorus] Although you may feel like giving up It's not the only road The path less often traveled Holds the highest, the highest of hopes [Verse 3] Some used to say that I'd never scale this mountain Now that I'm close, they shut their eyes and draw their curtains Those who don't believe will always encourage defeat They'll scream and shout and scold for the curse of the fold [Chorus 2] Although I felt like giving up It's not the road I chose The path less often traveled Held the highest, the highest of hopes Held the highest, the highest of hopes
