Within Tempation

Within Temptation

See who I am

<o:p></o:p>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

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
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

I hear their silence
Preaching my blame
Will our strength remain
If their power reigns ?

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
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

Jilian

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 truth when it stares you in the face ?
Will I ever, will I never free myself by breaking these chains ?

[Refrain:]
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 and then at last I'll be on my way.

I've been living for so long,
many seasons have past me by.
I've seen kingdoms through ages
rise 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 ?

[Refrain]

Julian 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.

(Julian, no more tears...Julian, no more tears...)

[Refrain]

Pale

The world seems not the same
Though I know nothing has changed
It's all my state of mind
I can't leave it all behind
Have to stand up to be stronger

I have to try
To breack free
From the thoughtsin my mind
I use the time that I have
I can't say goodbye
Have to make it right
Have to fight
Cause I know in the end it's worthwile
That the paint that I feel slowly fades away
It will be all right

I know
I Should realise
Time is precious
It is worthwile
Despite how I feel inside
Have to trust it will be alright
Have to stand up to be stronger

I have to try
To breack free
From the thoughtsin my mind
I use the time that I have
I can't say goodbye
Have to make it right
Have to fight
Cause I know in the end it's worthwile
That the paint that I feel slowly fades away
It will be all right

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 who calls my name
I remember you're the reason
I have to stay

I have to try
To breack free
From the thoughtsin my mind
I use the time that I have
I can't say goodbye
Have to make it right
Have to fight
Cause I know in the end it's worthwile
That the paint that I feel slowly fades away
It will be all right

Stand my ground

I can see
when you stay low
nothing happens
does it feel right?
late at night
things i thought i'd put behind me
haunt my mind

i just know there's no escape now
once it sets it's eyes on you
but i wont run
have to stare it in the eyes

stand my ground
i won't give in
no more denying
i've gotta 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 care?

thought this might just be ending
of the life i held so dear
but i won't run
there's no turning back from here

refrain

all i know for sure is that i'm trying
I will always stand my ground

refrain

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 would turn back the tide, it still lsips 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

The sacrifice was much too high,
Our greed just made us all go blind
We tried to hide what we fared inside
Today is the end of tomorrow

As the sea started rising,
The land that we'd 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

Angels

Sparkling angel I believed
You are my savior in my time of need.
Blinded by faith I couldn't hear
All 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?
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 the promise and made me realise.
It was all just a lie.
Could have been forever.
Now we have reached the end.

This world may have failed you,
It doesn't give you a reason why.
You could have chosen a different path in life.

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 the promise and made me realise.
It was all just a lie.
Could have been forever.
Now we have reached the end.

Memories

In this world you tried
Not leaving me alone behind
There's no other way
I prayed to the gods: let him stay

The memories ease the pain inside
Now I know why

All of my memories
Keep you near
In silence moments
Imagine you here
All of my memories
Keep you near
Your silent whispers
silent tears

Made me promise I'd try
To find my way back in this life
I hope there is a way
To give me a sign you're okay
Reminds me again
It's worth it all
So I can go on

All of my memories
Keep you near
In silence moments
Imagine you here
All of my memories
Keep you near
Your silent whispers
silent tears

Together in all these memories
I see your smile
All the memories I hold dear
Darling you know I will love you
'till the end of time

All of my memories
Keep you near
In silence moments
Imagine you here
All of my memories
Keep you near
Your silent whispers
silent tears

All Of My Memories!

It' the fear

It waits for the day
I will let it out
To give it a reason
To give it its mind

I fear who I am becoming
I fear that I'm loosing the struggle within
I can no longer restrain me
My strength it is fading, I have to give in

It's the fear
Fear of the dark, it's growing inside of me
That one day will come to life
(Have to save) to save my beloved, there is no escape
Because my faith is horror and doom

Hold down your head now
Just let me pass by
Don't feed my fear
If you don't want it out

I fear who I am becoming
I fear that I'm loosing the beauty within
I can no longer restrain me
My strength it is fading, I have to give in

It's the fear
Fear of the dark, it's growing inside of me
That one day will come to life
To save my beloved, there is no escape
Because my faith is horror and doom

Long ago it came to me
And ever since that day
(Infected with its rage)
But it ends today

It's the fear
Fear of the dark is growing inside of me
That one day will come to life
To save my beloved, there is no escape
Because my fate is horror an doom

Somewhere

Lost in the darkness,
hoping for a sign
Instead there is only silence,
can't you hear my screams?
Never stop hoping
Need to know where you are,
but one thing is for sure,
you're always in my heart

I'll find you somewhere
I'll keep on trying
until my dying day
I just need
to know whatever has happened,
the truth will free my soul

Lost in the darkness,
try to find your way home
I want to embrace you
and never let you go
Almost hope
you're in heaven so no one
can hurt your soul
Living in agony
cause I just do not know
where you are

I'll find you somewhere
I'll keep on trying
until my dying day
I just need
to know whatever has happened,
the truth will free my soul

Wherever you are,
I won't stop searching
Whatever it takes,
I need to know

I'll find you somewhere
I'll keep on trying
until my dying day
I just need
to know whatever has happened,
the truth will free my soul

A dangerous mind

I'm searching for answers
cause something is not right.
I follow the signs,
I'm close to the fire

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.
I fear your presence, I'm frozen inside.

I'm searching for answers
not questioned before.
The curse of awareness,
there's no peace of mind.
AS your true colours show
a dangerous sign

Chorus:
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 to know, while I still have time.
Do I have to run, or hide away from you?

Chorus:
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 on your mind.
There is no mercy, just anger I find.

Aquarius

I hear your whispers
Break the silence
And it calms me down
Your taste on my lips
Your salty kisses

They say I'm seeking up the danger
That one day you won't let me go
(I'll drown, you'll take me down)

[Chorus:]
I need you Aquarius
Enchanted I will have to stay.
I feel you Aquarius
'Cause you don't see, set me free
You call to me Aquarius
(You call to me, you set me free)

I relinquish
To your powers
From your grasp
I just can't hide

I missed the danger
I had to conquer
You made me feel alive

They say I have to be aware
That one day you won't let me go
Take me down

[Chorus]

I long for you Aquarius
I need to be with you again
I fear you, Aquarius
My destiny 'till the end

[Chorus]*2
