There's a rock in the middle of the ocean Where the water meets the sky Built from the fire way down below I can hear her mournful cry Waves crashing on a broken shore There's darkness on the sun Please lord don't leave me here In the valley of the gun Sail across the ocean Span the waters wide Seventy thousand gonna take that hill Look death in the eye There's fire on the ground and earth in the air The whole world's come undone The devil's loose on a beach of fire In the land of the rising sun Which way is heaven and which way is hell? It's so hard to tell Which way is heaven and which way is hell? It's so hard to tell Which way is heaven and which way is hell? It's so hard to tell Which way is heaven and which way is hell? It's so hard to tell Which way is heaven and which way is hell? Which way is heaven and which way is hell? Which way is heaven and which way is hell? Which way is heaven and which way is hell? It's so hard to tell I see colors flying, brothers dying The tides of war have sung Gonna fight to the death till there ain't much left In the land of the rising sun I see colors flying, brothers dying The tides of war have sung Gonna fight to the death till there ain't much left In the land of the rising sun In the land of the rising sun In the land of the rising sun In the land of the rising sun There's a rock in the middle of the ocean Where the water meets the sky Built from the fire way down below I can hear her mournful cry
