I've been there. In the heart of darkness, Shaking, scared. In that place where good men lie and innocence dies. In your heart you've seen it too In onyx, jet black. You know it's true. eighteen, yet to live, eight, no more to strive, For that one golden cup, of love of life of things unheard. one, prey to hatred, prey to madness, prey, to the depths. His very own, heart of darkness. Like birds who spread their wings embarking on a journey, your life soars and sings in fight and flight away from the gurney.

What is it like?
I've been there. In the heart of darkness, Shaking, scared. In that place where good men lie and innocence dies. In your heart you've seen it too In onyx, jet black. You know it's true. eighteen, yet to live, eight, no more to strive, For that one golden cup, of love of life of things unheard. one, prey to hatred, prey to madness, prey, to the depths. His very own, heart of darkness. Like birds who spread their wings embarking on a journey, your life soars and sings in fight and flight away from the gurney.
