    1. Restless

    She embraced, with a smile

    As she opened the door.

    A cold wind blows, it puts a chill into her heart.

    You have taken away the trust,

    you're the ghost haunting through her heart.

    Past and present are one in her head,

    you're the ghost haunting through her heart.

    Take my hand as I wonder through,All my life I gave to you.

    Take my hand as I wonder through,

    All my love I gave to you.

    You have taken away the trust,

    you're the ghost haunting through her heart.

    Take my hand as I wonder through,

    All my life I gave to you.

    Take my hand as I wonder through,

    All my love I gave to you.

    2. Enter

    The gates of time have opened,

    Now, it's chains are broken.

    An ancient force unleashed again

    As I enter the portal,I feel the enchantment

    2/90

    It takes me away, away from here

    Come near me,

    enter my private chambers,

    I want to feel the warmth on my face,

    light-in darkness,lift me up from here.

    Give me you wings,

    to flee from my ivory tower.

    As I enter the portal,

    I feel the enchantment

    The stars above are lying at my feet.

    Come near me,

    enter my private chambers,

    I want to feel the warmth on my face,light-in darkness,

    lift me up from here.

    Give me you wings,

    to flee from my ivory tower.

    3. Pearls Of Light

    After,

    the cold darkness,

    in the heart of the forest.

    Where birds are singing,

    for the new born sun

    In the womb of the leaves,

    on the branches of the trees,

    lies the treasure of the morning,

    the pearls of light.

    Carried away by thee truculence of my world,I got lost in the search for enlightenment,

    The blue rain covered my roots and I forgot where I came from.

    Carried away by thee truculence of my world,

    I got lost in the search for enlightenment,

    The blue rain covered my roots and I forgot where I came from.

    4. Deep Within

    Is there a place deep within?

  • 7/28/2019 Within Temptation Lyrics

    3/90

    A place where you hide your darkest sins

    There's a strange kind of ambiance,

    it's surrounding you

    as a songstress you lure me,

    towards the truth

    Candles die down ass you leave the room

    In my heart you leave no gloom

    As you lure me I know the truth

    You're a leprechaun, I see you through.

    Is there a place deep within?

    A place where you hide your darkest sins

    There's a strange kind of ambiance,

    it's surrounding youas a songstress you lure me,

    towards the truth

    5. Gatekeeper

    The shadows of the night,

    are unleashed again.

    Where their greed begins

    the end is near.

    A morbid hunger for blood,

    lies in their cold black eyes

    They've come to take our lives away.

    One by one they died.

    A massacre that took all night

    They had no chance, it was no fight

    You can't kill what has been killed before,

    They died...

    With shadows on its tale.

    He stepped Through the portal,

    locked the door and ate the key.

    With his life they took their way to freedom,

    and be became the final keeper of the key.

    6. Grace

    Cold are the bones of thy soldiers.Longing for home, their little paradise.

  • 7/28/2019 Within Temptation Lyrics

    4/90

    I don't feel redemption on their side

    Fallen from grace, help me rise again.

    Fallen from grace, help me through.

    Fallen from grace, help me through.Fallen from grace.

    Feel these hands, the pressure, the cold, tremble.

    Do you hear these words.

    Do you feel the wounds.

    I'll never help you through.

    Cold are thy souls,

    I feel the resentment,

    they feel betrayed,They hate the cold

    I don't feel redemption on their side.

    Fallen from grace, help me rise again.

    Fallen from grace, help me through.

    7. Blooded

    [instrumental]

    8. Candles

    Take away,

    These hands of darkness.

    Reaching for my soul.

    Now, the cold wind,

    blows out my candles.Feeling,

    only fear,

    without any hope.

    A thousand dark moons.

    A thousand winters long.

    A million fallen stars,

    the candle burns in the womb.

    We tried not to forget,

    they live through us.Slowly they die away at every candle's end

  • 7/28/2019 Within Temptation Lyrics

    5/90

    A thousand dark moons.

    A thousand winters long.

    A million fallen stars,

    the candle burns in the womb.

    We tried not to forget,

    they live through us.

    Slowly they die away at every candle's end

    EP: "The Dance" (1997)

    1. The Dance

    2. Another Day

    3. The Other Half (Of Me)

    1. The Dance

    Someone is dancing on my grave

    Sending shivers down my spine.I hear a laugh, it awoke my soul

    The wind takes the leaves where he

    wants them to go

    His tunes enchant our world,

    our thoughts and leaves us frozen

    In this heart of mine

    It's you I find

    Take my hand

    I'll take you to the promised land

    You're the one

    I hear a laugh, it awoke my soul

    The wind takes the leaves where he

    wants them to go

    His tunes enchant our will,

    Our thoughts and leaves us frozen

    Take my hand

    I'll take you to the promised land

    Nevil, whatever you have done, these tears

    will fade

    6/90

    Nevil, where ever have you gone,

    please have faith

    2. Another Day

    I know you're going away

    I take my love into another day

    In my thoughts you're with me

    I fell in love with your ways

    I know you're going away

    Lead my heart into a daze

    I know you're going away

    Leaves a void in my heart and soul

    Wherever you are

    Whatever you do

    I feel the walls surrounding you

    Wherever you are

    Whatever you do

    I know you are independent

    But I'm trying to get through to you

    Wherever you are

    Whatever you do

    Don't you know, it depends on you

    [Repeat 1st verse]

    3. The Other Half (Of Me)

    Over the hills, lies a new beginning

    Over the hillsOver the hills, there is a way I know it

    Over the hills

    You can't bring all the gloom

    Your heart is frayed and so empty

    You glorify the future

    Living in a different world than me

    The journey ends in death

    You are giving up so easily

    You are the other half of me

    Over the hills [4x]

  • 7/28/2019 Within Temptation Lyrics

    7/90

    We are drifting apart

    Chilled to the marrow, cause you don't want to go

    Cause we've got a different wish at heart

    The amulet guides us to the other side

    When I go down it's you who'll bleedI'm not scared to die, as long as I'm with you

    You are the other half of me

    Over the hills, lies a new beginning

    Over the hills

    Over the hills, there's a way I know it

    Over the hills

  • 7/28/2019 Within Temptation Lyrics

    8/90

    She rules until the end of time

    She gives and she takes

    She rules until the end of time

    She goes her own way

    With every breathAnd all the choices that we make

    We are only passing through on her way

    I find my strength

    Believing that your soul lives on

    Until the end of time

    I'll carry it with me

    Once you will know my dear

    You don't have to fear

    A new beginning always starts at the end

    Until the end of timeShe goes her own way

    2. Ice Queen

    When leaves have fallen

    And skies turned into grey.

    The night keeps on closing in on the day

    A nightingale sings his song of farewell

    You better hide for her freezing hell

    On cold wings she's coming

    You better keep moving

    For warmth, you'll be longing

    Come on just feel it

    Don't you see it?

    You better believe it.

    When she embraces

    Your heart turns to stoneShe comes at night when you are all alone

    And when she whispers

    Your blood shall run cold

    You better hide before she finds you

    Whenever she is raging

    She takes all life away

    Haven't you seen?

    Haven't you seen?

    The ruins of our world

    She covers the earth with a breathtaking cloak

  • 7/28/2019 Within Temptation Lyrics

    9/90

    The sun awakes and melts it away

    The world now opens its eyes and sees

    The dawning of a new day

    Whenever she is raging

    She takes all life awayHaven't you seen?

    Haven't you seen?

    The ruins of our world

    3. Our Farewell

    In my hands

    A legacy of memories

    I can hear you say my nameI can almost see your smile

    Feel the warmth of your embrace

    But there is nothing but silence now

    Around the one I loved

    Is this our farewell?

    Sweet darling you worry too much, my child

    See the sadness in your eyes

    You are not alone in life

    Although you might think that you are

    Never thought

    This day would come so soon

    We had no time to say goodbye

    How can the world just carry on?

    I feel so lost when you are not at my side

    But there's nothing but silence now

    Around the one I loved

    Is this our farewell?

    So sorry your world is tumbling downI will watch you through these nights

    Rest your head and go to sleep

    Because my child, this not our farewell.

    This is not our farewell.

    4. Caged

    These are the darkest clouds

    To have surrounded meNow I find my self alone caught in a cage

  • 7/28/2019 Within Temptation Lyrics

    10/90

    There's no flower to be found in here

    Not withering

    Or pale to me

    Everyone with a friendly face

    Seems to hide some secret inside

    He told me he loved me

    While he laughed in my face

    He just led me astray

    He took my virtue

    I feel so cold inside

    Sorrow has frozen my mind

    My heart is covered

    With thoughts entangled

    How could it ever have felt so real?

    Is there a place more lonely than I feel within?Could I have seen?

    Could I have known?

    I just took it as the truth

    Everyone with a friendly face

    Seems to hide some secret inside

    He told me he loved me

    While he laughed in my face

    He just led me astray

    He took my virtue

    I feel so cold inside

    Sorrow has frozen my mind

    Always there to remind me

    It keeps me from believing

    That someone might be there

    Who'll free me and never ever leave me

    5. The Promise

    On behalf of her love

    She no longer sleeps

    Life had no longer meaning

    Nothing to make her stay

    She sold her soul away

    I held you tight to me

    You slipped away

    You promised to return to me

    And I believed, I believed

  • 7/28/2019 Within Temptation Lyrics

    11/90

    After the night he died

    I wept my tears until they dried

    But the pain stayed the same

    I didn't want him to die all in vain

    I made a promise to revenge his soul in time

    I'll make them bleed down at my feet

    Sometimes I wonder

    Could I have known about their true intentions?

    As the pain stayed the same

    I'm going to haunt them down all the way

    I made a promise to revenge his soul in time

    One by one they were surprised

    6. Never-ending Story

    Armies have conquered

    And fallen in the end

    Kingdoms have risen

    Then buried by sand

    The Earth is our mother

    She gives and she takes

    She puts us to sleep and

    In her light we'll awake

    We'll all be forgotten

    There's no endless fame

    But everything we do

    Is never in vain

    We're part of a story, part of a tale

    We're all on this journey

    No one is to stay

    Where ever it's going

    What is the way?

    Forests and desertsRivers, blue seas

    Mountains and valleys

    Nothing here stays

    While we think we witness

    We are part of the scene

    This never-ending story

    Where will it lead to?

    The earth is our mother

    She gives and she takes

    But she is also a part

    A part of the tale

  • 7/28/2019 Within Temptation Lyrics

    12/90

    We're part of a story, part of a tale

    We're all on this journey

    No one is to stay

    Where ever it's going

    What is the way?

    We're part of a story, part of a taleSometimes beautiful and sometimes insane

    No one remembers how it began.

    7. Deceiver Of Fools

    He feeds on fear

    He feeds on pain

    He rules again

    With growing hateHe will guide

    Their faith again

    No light in the darkness

    Is too small to see

    There's always a sparkle of hope

    If you just believe

    He told the tale so many times

    About the dream not meant to be

    In a world of the free

    He plays with your mind

    As faith for the future faded fast

    He grows strong with their displeasure

    It sets him free

    Deceiver of hearts

    Deceiver of fools

    He rules with fear

    Deceiver of heartsDeceiver of fools

    He rules again

    He feeds on fear

    Poisons the truth

    To gain their faith

    To lead the way

    To a world of decay

    He rules your heart

    He will sell your soul to the grave

  • 7/28/2019 Within Temptation Lyrics

    13/90

    No hesitation he'll make

    He belongs to the dark

    Please awake

    And see the truth

    He can only beIf you believe what he tells you

    Remember who you are

    What you stand for

    And there will always be a way

    In my heart there is a place

    In my heart there is a trace

    Of a small fire burning

    A sheltering ray shines through this night

    Although it 's small, it's bright

    But darkness is lurking

    He will sell your soul to bitterness and cold

    Fear him

    Deceiver of hearts

    Deceiver of fools

    He rules with fear

    Deceiver of hearts

    Deceiver of fools

    Shall he rule again?

    8. Intro

    [instrumental]

    9. Dark Wings

    Why was I one of the chosen ones?

    Until the fight I could not see

    The magic and the strength of my power

    It was beyond my wildest dreams

    Dark wings they are descending

    See shadows gathering around

    One by one they are falling

    Every time they try to strike us down

    Don't you die on meYou haven't made your peace

  • 7/28/2019 Within Temptation Lyrics

    14/90

    Live life, breathe, breathe

    Don't you die on me

    You haven't made your peace

    Live life, breathe, breathe

    As they took your soul awayThe night turned into the day

    Blinded by your rays of life

    Give us the strength we needed

    10. Perfect Harmony

    In a world so far away

    At the end of a closing day

    A little child was born and raisedDeep in the forest on a hidden place

    Mother never saw his face

    Ancient spirits of the forest

    Made him king of elves and trees

    He was the only human being

    Who lived in harmony

    In perfect harmony

    The woods protected, fulfillled his needs

    Fruit by birds, honey by bees

    He found shelter under trees

    He grew up in their company

    They became his family

    A thousand seasons

    They passed him by

    So many times, have said goodbye

    And when the spirits called out his nameTo join forever, forever to stay

    A forest spirit he became

    11. World Of Make Believe

    [Bonus track]

    On golden wings

    She flies at nightWith her dress

  • 7/28/2019 Within Temptation Lyrics

    15/90

    It's blinding white

    Countless diamonds

    And her long blonde hair

    The queen is coming

    So you better be aware

    Her plums and flowersThey're never the same

    Blue and silver

    It's all her game

    Flying dragons

    And enchanted woods

    She decides, she creates

    It's her reality

    [REF:] In her world of dreams and make believe

    She reigns forever

    With all her glory

    Unicorns appear in her sight

    The fireflies lead her trough these woods at night

    In search of the legendary amulet

    And it's secret

    In the big oak there is a door

    Which will lead her

    To the wizard shore

    And she'll ask him

    For the wind to sail her home

    To the world where she belongs

    [REF:] In her world of dreams and make believe

    She reigns forever

    With all her glory

    In this world of endless fantasy

    She makes it happen

    It's her reality

    [REF:] In her world of dreams and make believe

    She reigns foreverWith all her glory

    In this world of endless fantasy

    She makes it happen

    It's her reality

    12. Deep Within

    [Bonus track]

    Is there a place deep within

  • 7/28/2019 Within Temptation Lyrics

    16/90

    A place where you hide your darkest sins

    There's a strange kind of ambiance,

    it's surrounding you

    As a songstress you lure me,

    towards the truth

    Candles die down as you leave the room

    In my heart you leave no gloom

    As you lure me I know the truth

    You're a leprechaun, I see you through

    Is there a place deep within

    A place where you hide your darkest sins

    There's a strange kind of ambiance,

    it's surrounding you

    As a songstress you lure me,

    towards the truth

    13. The Dance

    [Bonus track]

    Someone is dancing on my grave

    Sending shivers down my spine.

    I hear a laugh, it awoke my soul

    The wind takes the leaves where he

    Wants them to go

    His tunes enchant our world,

    Our thoughts and leaves us frozen

    In this heart of mine

    It's you I find

    Take my hand

    I'll take you to the promised land

    You're the one

    I hear a laugh, it awoke my soul

    The wind takes the leaves where he

    Wants them to go

    His tunes enchant our world,

    Our thoughts and leaves us frozen

    Take my hand

    I'll take you to the promised land

    Nevil, whatever you have done, these tears

    Will fadeNevil, where ever have you gone,

    14. Restless (Classical Version)

    [Bonus track]

    She embraced, with a smile

    As she opened the door

    A cold wind blows, it puts a chill into her heart

    You have taken away the trust,

    you're the ghost haunting through her heart

    Past and present are one in her head,

    you're the ghost haunting through her heart

    Take my hand as I wander through

    All of my life I gave to you

    Take my hand as I wander through

    All of my love I gave to you

    You have taken away the trust,

    you're the ghost haunting through her heart

    Take my hand as I wander through

    All of my life I gave to you

    Take my hand as I wander through

    All of my love I gave to you

    15. Bittersweet

    [Bonus track]

    If I tell you

    Will you listen?

    Will you stay?Will you be here forever?

    Never go away?

    Never thought things would change

    Hold me tight

    Please don't say again

    That you have to go

    A bitter thought

    I had it all

    But I just let it goHold your silence

  • 7/28/2019 Within Temptation Lyrics

    18/90

    It's so violent

    Since your gone

    [REF:] All my thoughts are with you forever

    Until the day we'll be back together

    I will be waiting for you

    If I had told you

    You would have listened

    You had stayed

    You would be here forever

    Never went away

    It would never have been the same

    All our time

    Would have been in vain

    Cause you had to go

    The sweetest thought

    I had it all

    Cause I did let you go

    All our moments

    Keep me warm

    When you're gone

    [REF:] All my thoughts are with you forever

    Until the day we'll be back together

    I will be waiting for you

    2. See Who I Am

    Is it true what they say?

    Are we too blind to find a way?

    Fear of the unknown

    Clouds our hearts today.

    Come into my world,

    See through my eyes.

    Try to understand,

    Don't want to lose what we have.

    We've been dreaming

    But who can deny?

    It's the best way of living

    Between the truth and the lies.

    [Chorus:]

    See who I am,

    Break through the surface.

    Reach for my hand,

    Let's show them that we can

    Free our minds and find a way.

    The world is in our hands,

    This is not the end.

    Fear is withering the soul

    At the point of no return.We must be the change we wish to see.

    I'll come into your world,

    See through your eyes.

    I'll try to understand,

    Before we lose what we have.

    We just can't stop believing

    Because we have to try.

    We can rise above their truth and their lies.

    [Chorus x2]

    Free our minds and find a way.

    The world is in our hands.

    This is not the end.

    I hear their silence

    Preaching my blame.

    Will our strength remain

    If their power reigns?

    [Chorus x2]

    See who I am,

    Break through the surface.Reach for my hand,

    And show them that we can

    I've been dreaming for so long,

    To find a meaning

    To understand.

    The secret of life,

    Why am I here

    To try again?

    Will I always,

    Will you always

    See the truthWhen it stares you in the face?

    Will I ever

    Will I never free myself

    By breaking these chains?

    [Chorus:]

    I'd give my heart, I'd give my soul.

    I'd turn it back, it's my fault.

    Your destiny is forlorn,

    Have to live till it's undone.

    I'd give my heart, I'd give my soul.I'd turn it back

  • 7/28/2019 Within Temptation Lyrics

    23/90

    And then at last

    I'll be on my way.

    I've been living for so long,

    Many seasons have passed me by.

    I've seen kingdoms through agesRise and fall,

    I've seen it all.

    I've seen the horror,

    I've seen the wonders

    Happening just in front of my eyes.

    Will I ever

    Will I never free myself by making it right?

    [Chorus]

    Jillian

    Our dream ended long ago.

    All our stories

    And all our glory

    I held so dear.

    We won't be together for ever and ever,

    No more tears.

    I'll always be here

    Until the end...

    Does it feel right?

    Late at night

    Things I thought I put behind me

    Haunt my mind

    I just know there's no escape

    Now once it sets its eyes on you

    But I won't run,

    Have to stare it in the eye

  • 7/28/2019 Within Temptation Lyrics

    No more denying, I've got to face it

    Won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside

    If I don't make it, someone else will

    Stand my ground

    It's all around

    Getting stronger, coming closer

    Into my world

    I can feel

    That it's time for me to face it

    Can I take it?

    Though this might just be the ending

    Of the life I held so dearBut I won't run,

    There's no turning back from here

    [Chorus]

    All I know for sure is I'm trying

    I will always stand my ground

    Stand my ground, I won't give in (I won't give in)

    I won't give up (I won't give up)

    no more denying, I got to face it

    won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside

    if I don't make it, someone else will

    Stand my ground, I won't give in

    no more denying, I got to face it

    won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside

    if I don't make it, someone else will

    stand my ground

    The world seems not the same

    Though I know nothing has changed

    I have to tryTo break free

  • 7/28/2019 Within Temptation Lyrics

    25/90

    From the thoughts in my mind

    Use the time that I have

    I can say goodbye

    Have to make it right

    Have to fight

    'Cause I know in the end it's worthwhileThat the pain that I feel slowly fades away

    It will be all right

    I know

    I should realize

    Time is precious

    It is worthwhile

    Despite how I feel inside

    Have to trust it'll be alright

    Have to stand up to be stronger

    [Chorus]

    Oh, this night is too long

    Have no strength to go on

    No more pain I'm floating away

    Through the mist I see the face

    Of an angel, calls my name

    I remember you're the reason I have to stay

    6. Forsaken

    Now the day has come

    We are forsaken this time

    We lived our lives

    In our paradiseAs Gods we shaped the world around

    No borderlines

    We stayed behind

    Though balance is something fragile

    Well we thought we were gaining

    We turned back the time

    It still slips away

    Our time has run out

    Our future has died

    There's no more escape

  • 7/28/2019 Within Temptation Lyrics

    We are forsaken

    There's no time any more

    Life will pass us by

    We are forsakenWe're the last of our kind

    The sacrifice

    Was much to hide

    Our greed just made us all go on

    We try to hide what we fear inside

    Today is the end of tomorrow

    As the sea started rise

    And the land that we conquered

    It just washed awayWe all have tried

    To turn back the time

    It was all in vain

    [Chorus:]

    Now the day has come

    We are forsaken

    There's no time any more

    Life will pass us by

    We are forsaken

    [Bonus track]

    I'm searching for answers

    I fear that soon you'll reveal

    Your dangerous mind.

    [Chorus:]

    It's in your eyes, what's on your mind.

    I fear your smile and the promise inside.

    It's in your eyes, what's on your mind.

    There's no peace of mind.

    As your true colours show

    A dangerous sign.

    [Chorus 2:]It's in your eyes, what's on your mind.

    I see the truth that you've buried inside.

    It's in your eyes, what's on your mind.

    There is no mercy just anger I find.

    I just have know, while I still have time.

    Do I have to run, or hide away from you?

    Is it a dream?

    All the ones I have loved calling out my name.

    The sun warms my face.

    All the days of my life, I see them passing me by.

    In my heart I know I can let go.

    In the end I will find some peace inside.

    New wings are growing tonight.

    As I am soaring I'm one with the wind.

    I am longing to see you again, it's been so long.

    Where are the heroes

    I my time of need

    Is my crying abandoned?

    Or have they gone

    Oh no

    They just tend to stand

    Out of the rain

    Thinking but not acting

    That they're not to blame

    Falling and crawling

    A fight to stand up

    Memory still haunts me

    In the dead of night

    Over and overI felt so small

    But one day I'll be stronger

    And you better watch out

    [Chorus:]

    I will overcome

    In violence there's silence

    Oh no,

    It can't be undone

    I will overcome

    Knowing that I'm not the only one

    I will overcome

    It's the only way to carry on

    Where are the saviours

    Afraid of the toll

    Sorry do my nine inch nails

    Slash your soul?

    Such heroes

    Throwing stonesStraight at the one

    Who is standing alone?

    Twisting and turning

    It's always the same

    The truth is never honest

    When you're to blame

    Pushing and pulling

    Never give in

    One day I wishYou see you're not so beautiful within

    Do you ever wonder if it's justified

    It's so easy to destroy and condemnThe ones you do not understand

    In your life why didn't you ever try

    I close my eyes as I walk the thin line between love and hate

    For the person with the same blood in his veins

    You show no regrets

    About all the things you did or said

    I have failed you

    But believe me you failed me too

    It's so easy to destroy and condemn

    The ones you do not understand

    Do you ever wonder if it's justifiedIt's so easy to destroy and condemn

    In your life why didn't you ever try

    18. Jane Doe

    [UK Bonus track]

    Run away, hide away

    The secrets in your mind

    Sacrificed just her life

    For a higher love

    No matter how many stones you put insideShe always keeps on floating in your mind

    With every turn of your head you see her face again

    Until the end, over and over again

    Why, you just won't leave my mind

    Was this the only way

    I couldn't let you stay

    Told the truth she laughed at you

    Something snapped inside

    She had to go or they would know

    All you tried to hide

    The sins of your life are now catching up with you.You can't stay ahead, there's nothing you can do

    Sparkling angel I believed

    You are my savior in my time of need.

    Blinded by faith I couldn't hearAll the whispers, the warnings so clear.

    I see the angels,

    I'll lead them to your door.

    There's no escape now,

    No mercy no more.

    No remorse cause I still remember

    The smile when you tore me apart.

    You took my heart,

    Deceived me right from the start.

    You showed me dreams,

    I wished they turn into real.

    You broke a promise and made me realise.

    It was all just a lie.

    Sparkling angel, I couldn't see

    Your dark intentions, your feelings for me.

    Fallen angel, tell me why?

    What is the reason, the thorn in your eye?

    To where you belong

    Please say my name

    Remember who I am

    You will find me in the world of yesterday

    You drift away again

    3. Forsaken

    Now the day has come.

    We are forsaken this time.

    We lived our lives in our paradise,

    As gods we shaped the world around.

    No borderlines we'd stay behind,

    Though balance is something fragile.

    While we thought we were gaining,

    We'd turn back the tide, it still slips away.

    Our time has run out, our future has died,

    There's no more escape.

    Now the day has come,

    We are forsaken,

    There's no time anymore.

    Life will pass us by,

    We are forsaken,

    We're the last of our kind.

  • 7/28/2019 Within Temptation Lyrics

    39/90

    The sacrifice was much too high,

    Our greed just made us all go blind.

    We tried to hide what we feared inside.

    Today is the end of tomorrow.

    As the sea started rising,The land that we conquered just washed away.

    Although we all have tried to turn back the tide,

    It was all in vain.

    Now the day has come,

    We are forsaken,

    There's no time anymore.

    Life will pass us by,we are forsaken,

    Only ruins stay behind.

    Now the day has come.We are forsaken this time.

    Now the day has come,

    We are forsaken,

    There's no time anymore.

    Now the day has come.

    The day has come.

    The day has come.

    4. The Promise

    On behalf of her love

    She no longer sleeps

    Life had no longer meaning

    Nothing to make her stay

    She sold her soul away

    I held you tight to meYou slipped away

    You promised to return to me

    And I believed, I believed

    After the night he died

    I wept my tears until they dried

    But the pain stayed the same

    I didn't want him to die all in vain

    I made a promise to revenge his soul in time

    I'll make them bleed down at my feet

    Sometimes I wonder

  • 7/28/2019 Within Temptation Lyrics

    40/90

    Could I have known about their true intentions?

    As the pain stayed the same

    I'm going to haunt them down all the way

    One by one they were surprised

    When you became a outcast in this life.

    Again and again I try

    to understand the demons inside your head,

    but the truth is you love them to death.

    Now, I know it's the last time I have tried

    to lift you up to make you fight.Nothing is ever easy in life.

    I can't change it if you don't have the will deep inside.

    I have been blind to how you justify

    everything that you've wasted in this life.

    Got lost in the illusion,

    I'd find a solution for the demons in your head,

    but the truth is you love them to death.

    In my darkest hours I could not foresee

    That the tide could turn so fast to this degree

    Can't believe my eyes

    How can you be so blind?Is the heart of stone, no empathy inside?

    Time keeps on slipping away and we haven't learned

    So in the end now what have we gained?

    Sanctus Espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour

    Sanctus Espiritus, insanity is all around us

    Sanctus Espiritus, is this what we deserve,

    can we break free from chains of never-ending agony?

    Are they themselves to blame, the misery, the pain?

    Didn't we let go, allowed it, let it grow?

    If we can't restrain the beast which dwells inside

    it will find it's way somehow, somewhere in time

    Will we remember all of the suffering

    Cause if we fail it will be in vain

    Sanctus Espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour

    Sanctus Espiritus, insanity is all around us

    Sanctus Espiritus, is this what we deserve,

    can we break free from chains of never-ending agony?

    When the ghosts are found, they will lead us to tomorrow

    If we could restart how it was before tomorrow.

    3. What Have You Done (Acoustic)

    Would you mind if I hurt you?

    Understand that I need to

    Wish that I had other choices

    than to harm the one I love

    What have you done now!

    I know I'd better stop trying

    You know that there's no denying

    I won't show mercy on you now

    I know, should stop believingI know, there's no retrieving

    It's over now, what have you done?

    What have you done now!

    I , I've been waiting for someone like you

    But now you are slipping away ...ohWhy, why does fate make us suffer?

    Would you mind if I killed you?Would you mind if I tried to?

    Cause you have turned into my worst enemy

    You carry hate that I don't feel

    It's over now

    What you done?

    4. The Cross (Acoustic)

    Nothing's ever changed, you still turn away

    You've washed your hands, you've made that all too clear

    You just keep on living this lie

    You refuse to see, you're denying me

    the cross I bear but you don't seem to care

    Even Judas knew he had lied

    I keep wondering why

    I'm still calling your name through my tears

    Why have you waited to embrace me my dear?

    Cold is your silence, denying what is real

    I'm still wondering why

    I'm still calling your name my dear

    I'm sorry if you can't stand the naked truth

    All you see is how you want it to be

    So you keep on living your life

    Release me from this cross after all these years

    Oh call my name and help me with this weight

    Even though it comes far too late

    I keep wondering why

    I'm still calling your name through my tears

    Why have you waited to embrace me my dear

    Cold is your silence, denying what is real

    I'm still wondering why I'm still calling your name

    and I wonder, oh I wonder ...

    In my heart I still hope you will open the door

    You can purify it all, answer my call

    Why? Why?

    Why have you waited to embrace me my dear?

    Cold is your silence, denying what is real

    I'm still wondering why I'm still calling your name

    and I wonder, oh I wonder ...

    In my heart I still hope you will open the doorYou can purify it all, answer my call

    1. The Howling

    We've been seeing what you wanted, got us cornered right now

    Fallen asleep from our vanity, might cost us our lives

    I hear they're getting closer

    Their howls are sending chills down my spine

    And time is running out now

    They're coming down the hills from behind

    When we start killing

    It's all coming down right now

    From the nightmare we've created,

    I want to be awakened somehow

    When we start killing it all will be falling down

    From the Hell that we're in

    All we are is fading away

    When we start killing...

    We've been searching all night long but there's no trace to be foundIt's like they all have just vanished but I know they're around

    I feel they're getting closer

    Their howls are sending chills down my spine

    And time is running out now

    They're coming down the hills from behind

    When we start killing

    It's all coming down right now

    From the nightmare we've created

    I want to be awakened somehow

    When we start killing it all will be falling down

    From the Hell that we're in

    All we are is fading away

    When we start killing...

    When we start killing...

    I feel they're getting closerTheir howls are sending chills down my spine

    And time is running out now

    They're coming down the hills from behind

    The sun is rising

    The screams have gone

    Too many have fallen

    Few still stand tall

    Is this the ending of what we've begun?

    Will we remember what we've done wrong?

    When we start killing

    It's all coming down right now

    From the nightmare we've created

    I want to be awakened somehow

    When we start killing it all will be falling down

    From the Hell that we're in

    All we are is fading away

    When we start killing...

    When we start killing...

    When we start killing...

    3. Frozen

    I can't feel my senses

    I just feel the cold

    All colors seem to fade away

    I can't reach my soul

    I would stop running, if knew there was a chance

    It tears me apart to sacrifice it all but I'm forced to let go

    Tell me I'm frozen but what can I do?

    Can't tell the reasons I did it for you

    When lies turn into truth I sacrificed for youYou say that I'm frozen but what can I do?

    I can feel your sorrow

    You won't forgive me,

    but I know you'll be all right

    It tears me apart that you will never know but I have to let go

    Tell me I'm frozen but what can I do?

    Can't tell the reasons I did it for you

    When lies turn into truth I sacrificed for you

    You say that I'm frozen but what can I do?

    Everything will slip way

    Shattered peaces will remain

    When memories fade into emptiness

    Only time will tell its tale

    If it all has been in vain

    I can't feel my senses

    I just feel the cold

    Frozen...But what can I do?

    Frozen...

    Tell me I'm frozen but what can I do?

    Can't tell the reasons I did it for you

    When lies turn into truth I sacrificed for you

    You say that I'm frozen, frozen...

    4. Our Solemn Hour

  • 7/28/2019 Within Temptation Lyrics

    53/90

    Sanctus Espiritus redeem us from our solemn hour

    Sanctus Espiritus insanity is all around us

    Sanctus Espiritus! Sanctus Espiritus! Sanctus Espiritus!

    In my darkest hours I could not foreseeThat the tide could turn so fast to this degree

    Can't believe my eyes

    How can you be so blind?

    Is the heart of stone, no empathy inside?

    Time keeps on slipping away and we haven't learned

    So in the end now what have we gained?

    Sanctus Espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour

    Sanctus Espiritus, insanity is all around us

    Sanctus Espiritus, is this what we deserve,

    can we break free from chains of never-ending agony?

    Are they themselves to blame, the misery, the pain?

    Didn't we let go, allowed it, let it grow?

    If we can't restrain the beast which dwells inside

    it will find it's way somehow, somewhere in time

    Will we remember all of the suffering

    Cause if we fail it will be in vain

    Sanctus Espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour

    Sanctus Espiritus, insanity is all around us

    Sanctus Espiritus, is this what we deserve,

    can we break free from chains of never-ending agony?

    5. The Heart Of Everything

    For the pain and the sorrow caused by my mistakes

    Won't repent to a mortal whom is all to blame

    Now I know I won't make it

    There will be a time we'll get back our freedomThey can't break what's inside

    I'll face it 'cause it's the heart of everything

    Open up your eyes

    Save yourself from fading away now, don't let it go

    Open up your eyes

    See what you've become, don't sacrifice

    It's truly the heart of everything

    Stay with me now I'm facing my last solemn hourVery soon I'll embrace you on the other side

  • 7/28/2019 Within Temptation Lyrics

    54/90

    Hear the crowd in the distance, screaming out my faith

    Now their voices are fading, I can feel no more pain

    I'll face it 'cause it's the heart of everything

    Open up your eyesSave yourself from fading away now, don't let it go

    Open up your eyes

    See what you've become, don't sacrifice

    It's truly the heart of everything

    Open up your eyes

    Open up your eyes

    Open up your eyes

    Save yourself from fading away now, don't let it go

    Open up your eyesSee what you've become, don't sacrifice

    It's truly the heart of everything

    6. Hand Of Sorrow

    The child without a name grew up to be the hand

    To watch you, to shield you or kill on demand

    The choice he'd made he could not comprehend

    His blood a grim secret they had to command

    He's torn between his honor and the true love of his life

    He prayed for both but was denied

    So many dreams were broken and so much was sacrificed

    Was it worth the ones we loved and had to leave behind?

    So many years have past, who are the noble and the wise?

    Will all our sins be justified?

    The curse of his powers tormented his lifeObeying the crown was a sinister price

    His soul was tortured by love and by pain

    He surely would flee but the oath made him stay

    He's torn between his honor and the true love of his life

    He prayed for both but was denied

    So many dreams were broken and so much was sacrificed

    Was it worth the ones we loved and had to leave behind?

    So many years have past, who are the noble and the wise?

    Will all our sins be justified?

  • 7/28/2019 Within Temptation Lyrics

    55/90

    Please forgive me for the sorrow, for leaving you in fear

    For the dreams we had to silence, that's all they'll ever be

    Still I'll be the hand that serves you

    Though you'll not see that it is me

    So many dreams were broken and so much was sacrificedWas it worth the ones we loved and had to leave behind?

    So many years have past, who are the noble and the wise?

    Will all our sins be justified?

    7. The Cross

    Nothing's ever changed, you still turn away

    You've washed your hands, you've made that all too clear

    You just keep on living this lie

    You refuse to see, you're denying me

    the cross I bear but you don't seem to care

    Even Judas knew he had lied

    I keep wondering why

    I'm still calling your name through my tears

    Why have you waited to embrace me my dear?

    Cold is your silence, denying what is real

    I'm still wondering why

    I'm still calling your name my dear

    I'm sorry if you can't stand the naked truth

    All you see is how you want it to be

    So you keep on living your life

    Release me from this cross after all these years

    Oh call my name and help me with this weight

    Even though it comes far too late

    I keep wondering why

    I'm still calling your name through my tears

    Why have you waited to embrace me my dear

    Cold is your silence, denying what is real

    I'm still wondering why I'm still calling your name

    and I wonder, oh I wonder ...

    In my heart I still hope you will open the door

    You can purify it all, answer my call

    Why? Why?

    8. Final Destination

    I escaped my final moment

    But it's turning back at me

    On every corner I can feel it waiting

    Just a moment, no awarenessI could easily slip away

    And then I'll be gone forever

    I'm searching,

    I'm fighting for a way to get through

    To turn it away

    It's waiting, always trying

    I feel the hands of fate, they're suffocating

    Tell me what's the reason

    Is it all inside my head

    Can't take it no more!

    All around me I see danger

    And it's closing in on me

    Every second I can hear it breathing

    I can't stand the fear inside me

    Cause it's leading me astray

    And it will be my ending

    I'm searchingI'm fighting for a way to get through

    To turn it away

    It's waiting, always trying

    I feel the hands of fate, they're suffocating

    Tell me what's the reason

    Is it all inside my head

    Can't take it no more!

    But no one faced what's coming my way

    And I will let my fear fade awayWhatever may be, I'll have to find out

    It's waiting, always trying

    9. All I Need

    I'm dying to catch my breath

    Oh why don't I ever learn?

    I've lost all my trust,

    though I've surely tri
