Heart of Darkness
Conflicts Lyrics

Gentle thoughts corrupted by darkness
Innocent ideas twisted and tainted by negative influences.

A kind heart bathed in sin and rage
A compassionate person consumed by immoral behavior and anger.

This struggle to find some security
The constant battle to feel safe and stable in one's life.

I′ve built these walls and abandoned all the good in me
I have put up emotional barriers and forsaken my positive qualities.

This world is driving me fucking insane
The pressures and chaos of society are pushing me to the brink of madness.

I think I'm going insane
I am afraid that my sanity is slipping away.

How could I do the right thing when every time I try
Why bother making moral choices if someone else will always take advantage of me?

Someone′s heartless hands are reaching behind my back
Other people are trying to harm me without any compassion or empathy.

To take whats mine
To steal what belongs to me or to take advantage of my vulnerability.

I never wanted this thing to steal my voice
I did not intend for this situation to rob me of my ability to express myself.

It seems I'm left with no choice
I feel powerless and unable to take any action.

There's a thin line between passion and rage
It is easy to blur the boundaries between strong emotions of love and hate.

I′m walking it blindly with no balance
I am struggling to navigate these complex emotions without any sense of control.

They say the good die young, my heart still beats
A common saying suggests that only virtuous people die young, but I am still alive despite my faults.

So what does that make me
What kind of person am I if I am flawed but still alive?

I can′t make peace in this world
I cannot find a way to feel content or harmonious in this chaotic environment.

When I struggle to find it in myself
It is difficult to feel peaceful internally when the outside world is so tumultuous.

I strive to find complacency
I am working hard to achieve a sense of calm and satisfaction.

To give back the doubt I have in everything
To return the skepticism and mistrust I feel towards everything and everyone.

Leave your kind heart at the door
Do not show compassion or empathy in this harsh environment.

There is no need for it here
Those emotions will not be appreciated or reciprocated in this unforgiving world.
