Heart of Darkness - Warbringer

Far into the unknown

They find this land

Yet unspoiled by time

Its people quite defenseless

Its riches ripe for the taking

They brought the torch

They brought the sword

To seek their fame

To seek reward

They venture into

The jungles and mists

And blinded, they see

Only an infinite darkness

Darkness

The crack of whips, the clack of chains

To bring the light

But why such pain?

To rule by force and domination

And then to speak of civilization?

The ivory face

The eyes so cold

The lust for power

The glimmer of gold

There lies a sickness deep in the soul

One glance in the mirror

Reveals an infinite darkness

Darkness

Stained human soul which none can disguise

What evil lurks in recesses of the mind?

Would you chain another if you gained from their demise?

To peer into this darkness means to face

The horror

The horror

The horror

The horror

The horror within us all

Far, so far into the unknown

The hateful seeds that have been sown

The quest for wealth, that grim desire

The severed hands, the homes afire

Through the years, an unending stain

The crack of whips, the clack of chains

And even today, the echo remains

Witness the still-beating heart, heart of darkness

Darkness

Witness the still-beating heart, heart of darkness

Darkness
