Альбом Within Temptation

We've been seeing what you want,
You've got us cornered right now
Falling asleep from our vanity
May cost us our lives

I hear them getting closer
Their howls are sending chills down my spine
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 night that we've created
I wanna be awakened somehow
(I wanna be awakened right now)
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 on and on
But there's no trace to be found
It's like they all have just vanished
But I know they're around

I feel them getting closer
The howls are sending chills down my spine
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 night that we've created
I wanna be awakened somehow
(I wanna be awakened right now)
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 them getting closer
The howls are sending chills down my spine
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 night that we've created
I wanna be awakened somehow
(I wanna be awakened right now)
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!

(feat. Keith Caputo)Would you mind if I hurt you?
Understand that I need to
Wish that I had other choices
Than to harm the one I loveWhat 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 I should stop believing
I know that 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 sleepping away
What have you done now?
Why, Why does fate make us suffer
There's a curse between us
Between me and youWhat have you done?
What have you done now?
What have you done ?
What have you done now?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 feel
It's over now
What have you doneWhat have you done nowI, I've been waiting for someone like you
But now you are sleepping away
What have you done now?
Why, Why does fate make us suffer
There's a curse between us
Between me and youWhat have you done?
What have you done now?
What have you done?
What have you done now?I will not fall
Won't let it go
We will be free
When it endsI, I've been waiting for someone like you
But now you are sleepping away
What have you done now?
Why, Why does fate make us suffer
There's a curse between us
Between me and you

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 you
You 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...

Santus Espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour
Santus Espiritus, insanity is all around us
Sanctus Espiritus! Sanctus Espiritus! Sanctus Espiritus!

In my darkest hours
I could not foresee
That the time could turn so fast to this degree
Can't believe my eyes
How can you be so blind
Is the heart of stone nowhere but fear inside
Time keeps on slipping away
And we haven't learned
So in the end they won't have free sky

Santus Espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour
Santus Espiritus, insanity is all around us
Santus Espiritus is this what we deserve
Can we break free
From chains of neverending agony?

Aren't they themselves to blame
The misery, the pain
That I will let go
Allow to let it grow
If we can't restrain
The beast which dwells inside
It will find its way somehow, somewhere in time

Will we remember all of the suffering
Cause if we may heal the fear in vain

Santus Espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour
Santus Espiritus, insanity is all around us
Santus Espiritus is this what we deserve
Can we break free
From chains of neverending agony?

Santus Espiritus!
Santus Espiritus!

Santus Espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour
Santus Espiritus, insanity is all around us
Santus Espiritus is this what we deserve
Can we break free
From chains of neverending agony?
Santus Espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour
Santus Espiritus, insanity is all around us
Santus Espiritus is this what we deserve
Can we break free
From chains of neverending agony?

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 freedom
They can't breake 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
Open up your eyes

Stay with me now I'll facing my last solemn hour
Very soon I'll embrace you on the other side
Hear the crowd in the distance screaming out my faith
Now the voices are fading, I can feel no more pain
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

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 eyes
See what you've become, don't sacrifice
It's truly the heart of everything

The child without a name grew up to be the hand
To watch you, to shield you, or kill on demand
The choice he made he could not comprehend
He's got 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 we sacrifice
Was it worth the ones we loved and had to leave behind
So many years have past toward a noble land of lies
Will all our sins be justified?

The curse of his powers tormented his life
Obeying the crown was a sinister crime
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 we sacrifice
Was it worth the ones we loved and had to leave behind
So many years have past toward a noble land of lies
Will all our sins be justified?

Please forgive me for the sorrow
For leaving you in fear
For the dreams we had to silence
That's all there'll ever be
Still I'll be the hand that saves you
Though you'll not see that it is me

So many dreams were broken and so much we sacrifice
Was it worth the ones we loved and had to leave behind
So many years have past toward a noble land of lies
Will all our sins be justified?

Nothing's ever changed, just a 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 I'm in agony
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
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 stil hope, you will open the door?
You can purify it all and save my heart

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 stil hope, you will open the door?
You can purify it all and save my heart

I escaped my final moment,
But it's turning back on me
On every corner I can feel it waiting
And just a moment of awareness,
I can easily slip away.
And then I'll be gone forever!
I'm searching
I'm finding for a way to get through.
To turn it away.
It's reigning, always trying.
Feel the hands of fate
They're suffocating.
Tell me what's the reason?
Is it only 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 feeling inside of me.
'Cause the speed of me is jaded.
And it will be my end.
I'm searching
I'm finding for a way to get through
To turn it away.
It's reigning, always trying.
Feel the hands of fate
They're suffocating.
Tell me what's the reason?
Is it only 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 away
Whatever may be, I'll have to find out.
It's reigning, always trying.
Feel the hands of fate
They're suffocating.
Tell me what's the reason?
Is it only inside my head?
Can't take it no more.

I'm dying to catch my breath
Oh why don't i ever learn
I've lost all my trust that i'm sure we try to
Turn it aroundCan you still see the heart of me
All my agony fades away
When you hold me in your embraceDon't tear me down
For all i need
Make my heart a better place
Give me something I can believe
Don't turn me down
You're far from the door now
Don't let it closeHe only had to go
I wish I could let it go
I know that I'm only one step away
From turning aroundCan you still see the heart of me
All my agony fades away
When you hold me in your embraceDon't tear me down
For all i need
Make my heart a better place
Give me something I can believe
Don't turn it down
What's left of me
Make my heart a better placeI've tried many times but nothing was real
Make it fade away
Don't break me down
I want to believe that this is for real
Save me from my fear
Don't turn me downDon't tear me down
For all i need
Make my heart a better placeDon't tear me down
For all i need
Make my heart a better place
Give me something i can believe
Don't tear it down
What's left of me
Make my heart a better place

Give me strength to face the truth
The doubt within my soul
No longer I can justify
The bloodshed in his name
Is it a sin to seek the truth, the truth beneath the rose?
Pray with me so I will find the gate to Heaven's door
I believed it would justify the means
It had a hold over me
Blinded to see
The cruelty of the beast
Here is the darkest side of me
(Forgive me my sins)
The field of my dreams
Deceived all I have seen
Forgive me for what I have been
(Forgive me my sins)
Pray for me 'cause I have lost my faith in holy wars
This paradise denied to me 'cause I can't take no more
Has darkness taken over me
Consumed my mortal soul?
All my virtues sacrificed
Can Heaven be so cruel?
I believed it would justify the means
It had a hold over me
(Forgive me my sins)
Blinded to see
The cruelty of the beast
Here is the darkest side of me
(Forgive me my sins)
The field of my dreams
Deceived all I have seen
Forgive me for what I have been
(Forgive me my sins)
I'm hoping, I'm praying
I won't get lost between two masks
Follow a sin
The truth lies in between
Give me the strength to face the wrong that I have done
Now that I know
The darkest side of me
How can blood be your salvation
And justify the pain
That we have caused throughout the times
Will I learn what's truly sacred
Will I redeem my soul
Will truth set me free
Blinded to see
The cruelty of the beast
Here is the darkest side of me
(Forgive me my sins)
The field of my dreams
Deceived all I have seen
Forgive me for what I have been
(Forgive me my sins)

Couldn't save you from the start
Love you so it hurts my soul
Can you forgive me for trying again?
Your silence makes me hold my breath
All the time has passed you by

For so long, I've tried to shield you from the world
You couldn't face the freedom on your own

Here I am
Left in silence

You gave up the fight
You left me behind
All that's done's forgiven
You'll always be mine
I know deep inside
All that's done's forgiven

Watched the clouds drifting away
Still the sun can't warm my face
I know it was destined to go wrong
You were looking for the great escape
To chase your demons away

For so long, I've tried to shield you from the world
You couldn't face the freedom on your own

Here I am
Left in silence

You gave up the fight
You left me behind
All that's done's forgiven
You'll always be mine
I know deep inside
All that's done's forgiven

I've been so lost since you've gone
Why not me before you?
Why did fate deceive me?
Everything turned out so wrong
Why did you leave me in silence?

You gave up the fight
You left me behind
All that's done's forgiven
You'll always be mine
I know deep inside
All that's done's forgiven
