Within Temptation - Stand My Ground lyrics



Tracks



01. Stand My Ground

I can see
When you stay low nothing happens
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 wont run,
Have to stare it in the eye

Stand my ground, I wont 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

It's all around
Getting stronger, coming closer
Into my world

I can feel
That its time for me to face it
Can I take it?

Stand my ground, I wont 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

Though this might just be the ending
Of the life I held so dear
But I won't run,
There's no turning back from here

All I know for sure is I'm trying
I will always stand my ground

Stand my ground, I wont 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

Stand my ground, I wont 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

02. Overcome

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 over
I felt so small
But one day I'll be stronger
And you better watch out

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 stones
Straight 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 wish
You see you're not so beautiful within

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

Run and run
Run and run

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

I will overcome

03. It's The Fear

Wish You Were Here
Me, oh, my country man
Wish You Were Here
I Wish You Were Here
Don't you know, the snow is getting colder
And I miss you like hell
And I'm feeling blue

I've got feelings for you
Do you still feel the same?
From the first time I laid my eyes on you
I felt joy of living
I saw heaven in your eyes
In yor eyes

Wish You Were Here
Me, oh, my country man
Wish You Were Here
I Wish You Were Here
Don't you know, the snow is getting colder
And I miss you like hell
And I'm feeling blue

I miss your laugh, I miss your smile
I miss everything about you
Every second's like a minute
Every minute's like a day
When you're far away

The snow is getting colder, baby
I Wish You Were Here
A battlefield of love and fear
And I Wish You Were Here

I've got feelings for you
From the first time I laid my eyes on you

Wish You Were Here
Me, oh, my country man
Wish You Were Here
I Wish You Were Here
Don't you know, the snow is getting colder
And I miss you like hell
And I'm feeling blue

(Wish you were here)
Wish you were here
Wish you were here
(Wish you were here)
I wish you were here

04. Towards The End

The turn against
The world we know
Now our destiny
Will be decided
We have to send our brothers in arms
With pain in our heart
We watched them go
Will they return?
Truth is we had no choice
We'll try to shield those we can
No better world
Let this end
Mothers cry
Our boys die
But we'll stand 'till the end

05. The Swan Song
