Heart Of Darkness lyrics

In every man there`s good and bad
Madness lurks in every brain
Do you know what`s deep in your head
Are you a genius or insane
Sometimes the borders deep in you just fall
General`s gone mad in Vietnam
Became a god a lonely one
Once a soldier of great fame he was
Now killing seems all the same in wars
Sometimes the other side breaks through the wall
You do your duty, just don`t ask why
Kill him with a cold heart, he`s damned to die
The river leads you all the way, you never stop
You fight to live another day, can`t ever stop
We`re fighting for freedom
We`re fighting for peace
We`re serving our country
We`re fighting for god
You feel the madness, the jungle breeds
It all seems useless, heroic deeds
Madness creeps into your deepst core, and in your soul

[Chorus:]
In the heart of darkness
I see the fire in the eastern sky
In the heart of darkness
Soldiers fighting for a lie

Man, you`re crazy, believe me, you`re not god
Who`s to say so, ain`t we, all the same
Man, you slaughter, it`s useless, what`s your game
All is useless, was games, it seems insane
I observed a snail creeping on the edge of a razor blade
That`s my dream, that is my nightmare
To creep on the edge of the razor blade and survive
You did your duty, the general is dead
But you paid a high price, your min`s gone mad
Somehow the general had his way, a point of no retun
The memories haunt you night and day, in your soul the burn
