Down in the Dark Lyrics

Have you been told the fortunes afar
if not are you willing to follow me, boy?
Gather your weapons, the time's running out
the word is spreading around

Seventeen seadogs hungry for gold
sailing together through thundering storms
On the horizon an island arise
pointing straight to the sky

Drop the anchor, land ahead and look for the signs
Burning sun, we're drying out and fever kicks in

Treasure lies beyond the jungle,
follow me deep down in the dark
Tropic hills can't stop out journey,
follow me deep down in the dark

Vomiting blood and crying for help,
visions of other worlds coming true
See all the dancing fairies around
with bloody eyes in their skulls

Don't give up, we're only seeing things in our minds
Pray for light and walk with me, I've not gone insane

Treasure lies beyond the jungle,
follow me deep down in the dark
Tropic hills can't stop out journey,
follow me deep down in the dark

(solo)

Seduced by the angels, men spreading out,
walking like brain-dead, erring around
Death is collecting souls on a row,
but I will never give up

There it is, the rumored chest in all of its glory
Skeletons surrounding the glow, and the next one is me!

Treasure lies beyond the jungle,
follow me deep down in the dark
Tropic hills can't stop out journey,
follow me deep down in the dark

Treasure lies beyond the jungle,
follow me deep down in the dark
Tropic hills can't stop out journey,
follow me deep down in the dark
