(Steve Harris, Blaze Bayley, Janick Gers)
2
I've looked into the heart of darkness
3
Where the blood-red journey ends
4
When you've faced the heart of darkness
5
Even your soul begins to bend
6
For a week I have been waiting
7
Still I am only in Saigon
8
The walls move in a little closer
9
I feel the jungle call me on
10
Every minute I get weaker
11
While in the jungle they grow strong
12
What I wanted was a mission
13
And for my sins they gave me one
14
They brought it up just like room service
15
'Cause everyone gets what they want
16
And when that mission was all over
17
I'd never want another one
18
I know, captain,
19
That you've done this work before
20
We've got a problem
21
You can help us all I'm sure
22
The colonel's gone rogue
23
And his methods are unsound
24
You'll take a PBR up river track him down
25
There's a conflict in every human heart
26
And the temptation is to take it all to far
27
In this war things get so confused
28
But there are some things
29
Which cannot be excused
30
He's acting like a God - an insane lunatic
31
Your mission - exterminate
32
With extreme prejudice
33
The route is dangerous
34
And your progress may be slow
35
Here is the file and it's all you need to know
36
Here I am the knife in my hand
37
And now I understand why the genius must die
38
Now I stand alone in the darkness
39
With his blood upon my hands
40
Where sat the warrior the poet
41
Now lie the fragments of a man
42
I've looked into the heart of darkness
43
Where the blood-red journey ends
44
When you've faced the heart of darkness
45
Even your soul begins to bend
