Light The Torch
I tabbed this song on a seven string that was tuned regular, so if
you don't have one, tune your guitar down to a B (one step), and no
drop D stuff. But I'm writing as a seven string because that's how
I tabbed it, if you didn't already know that.

Then go back to Riff B and A (the chorus) again, then C and D, then

This Riff should played with a second guitar who plays Riff E at the
same time.
I didn't tab the solo because I can't play solos, let alone tab them.
Then switch back to Riff E, and when you switch back Riff F, replace
the octaves on the 9th fret with octave on the 6th fret. (It should
be easy to distinguish when to play the octave on the 9th fret.
The very end of the song ends with:

|-1---1-0-|
Claiming hes an innocent soul
Son of a silent force
Under pressure but all so cold
I better light the torch
Cause hes able to do it again
Degrade and suffocate
Getting the useful support
From his passive friends
How can you just proceed you little callous fuck
You just walk the streets like a not knowing breed
Chorus:
Give me a sign and Ill do just
What Im thinking right away
How can she ever forget, so suffer and start to regret
It will come around cause you know that shell
Be thinking of you...
I feel so powerless. cant face my hollowness
Youve had your time. gonna walk that line
Like a living travesty, endlessly bound to your sins.
Ill hunt you down in time. youre just a feeble swine
How can I compromise when all you do is deny
This pain will last forever, never growing old
Nobody will ever answer, how you can be so cold
