The Edge of Darkness

Iron Maiden

I've looked into the heart of darkness 
Where the blood red journey ends 
When you've faced the heart of darkness 
Even your soul begins to bend 

For a week I have been waiting 
Still I am only in Saigon 
The walls move in a little closer 
I feel the jungle call me on 

Every minute I get weaker 
While in the jungle they grow strong 
What I wanted was a mission 
And for my sins they gave me one 

They brought it up just like room service 
Cause everyone gets what they want 
And when that mission was all over 
I'd never want another one 

I know, captain that you've done this work before 
We've got a problem you can help us all I'm sure 
The colonel's gone rogue 
and his methods are unsound 
You'll take a PBR up river track him down 

There's a conflict in every human heart 
And the temptation is to take it all too far 
In this war things get so confused 
But there are some things which can not be excused 

He's acting like a god an insane lunatic 
Your mission - exterminate with extreme prejudice 
The route is dangerous and your progress may be slow 
Here is the file and it's all you need to know 

Here I am the knife in my hand 
And now I understand why the genius must die 

Now I stand alone in darkness 
With his blood upon my hands 
Where sat the warrior the poet 
Now lie the fragments of a man
