Within Temptation - Our Solemn Hour lyrics

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?
