Within Temptation The Heart Of Everything 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 found It'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 closer Their 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... 2. What Have You Done? [feat. Keith Caputo] [Album Version] 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?!

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 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... 4. Our Solemn Hour 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 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? 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 freedom They 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 hour Very soon I'll embrace you on the other side 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 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 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 life Obeying 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? 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 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. 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? 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 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 awareness I 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 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! 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 waiting, always trying 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! 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 tried to turn it around Can you still see the heart of me? All my agony fades away when you hold me in your embrace Don't tear me down for all I need Make my heart a better place Give me something I can believe Don't tear me down You've opened the door now, don't let it close I'm here on the edge again I wish I could let it go I know that I'm only one step away from turning it around Can you still see the heart of me? All my agony fades away when you hold me in your embrace Don'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 I 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 tear me down Don't tear me down for all I need Make my heart a better place Don'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 Make my heart a better place 10. The Truth Beneath The Rose 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 It is the darker side of me The veil 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 Is 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 Blinded to see the cruelty of the beast It is the darker side of me The veil 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 worlds For all I have seen 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 our 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 It is the darker side of me The veil of my dreams deceived all I have seen Forgive me for what I have been Forgive me my sins 11. Forgiven 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 Time has passed you by Oh, for so long I've tried to shield you from the world Oh, 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 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 Oh, for so long I've tried to shield you from the world Oh, you couldn't face the freedom on your own And 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
