Within Temptation Lyrics

    ------ About the song Memories performed by Within Temptation

This song reminds me of my girlfriend.. We loved each other a lot, until her parents put an end to our relationship. She has turned cold since then, but I still love her from the bottom of my heart. This song makes me cry my heart out.

    ------ About the song The Truth Beneath The Rose performed by Within Temptation

Hi everyone. I think that the last words of the song are:

"Et est signum dies datus et tenebris
Mea culpa acta est fabula pereo"

I'm not sure about the meaning, but it is something similar to this:

"This is the sign given to the darkness.
It's my fault - ?"

OF course, good song (not in my top10 of WT, but still a nice one!); I wanna highlight Sharon's spectacular voice, as always. She simply rocks.

    ------ About the song Angels performed by Within Temptation

when i first heard this song 'angels',i totaly got hooked on to it.The lyrics are amazing,i somehow could relate to it cuz it happend to me too...i trusted,i cared but all i got back ws betrayal!!!
p.s evanescence n within temptation sounds similar!:)

    ------ About the song Running Up That Hill performed by Within Temptation

I like the lyrics of this song and it is right that sharon has in their version more strange in her voice. I think this version of WT is better than the other versions of some good bands or singers.

    ------ About the song The Promise performed by Within Temptation

This is one of the best tunes with operatic voice introduced in metal;Sharon`s voice is simply wonderful! I love this song so much!
I don`t think she has bad pronunciation in the lyrics;I understand everything she says;the reason why people find it difficult is because the song is opera-like;and that`s what makes it awesome!
Forgive me everybody but I don`t find anywhere in the song that says: "You almost look happy"; what the guy is saying is Where are you now? You`re almost in heaven" In heaven! And it doesn`t sound like lonesome Capulet either!! Well,for me she sings like an angel so to speak!!

    ------ About the song The Cross performed by Within Temptation

Amazing song i love the meaning of all there songs. This song always reminds me of my ex and our break up. " I keep wondering why
I'm still calling your name through my tears"
I still think of him and i know in when i need some one there its all ways him i think of would call out if i had to but after all the shit he put me through i don't know why i still would call out his name .

Anyway much love for the band . Bands come and go for people but within temptation

    ------ About the song The Swan Song performed by Within Temptation

So, someone wrote, that the 'me' in the lyrics is close to death. Personally, I think she lost someone by making mistakes. So she sees no meaning in life. Then somehow, the loved one/ones 'call her name', remember her, find a wazy nack to her. This feelink gives the new wings to carry on. This is the swan song, the end of something, but it can be a new begining.

    ------ About the song Running Up That Hill performed by Within Temptation

This song is very cool and I love it soooo much. The lyrics are pretty good and I like the version from WT many times more than the original by Kate Bush. Sorry for all Kate Bush fans but Sharons voice has in their version more strange

    ------ About the song Deceiver Of Fools performed by Within Temptation

''Please awake
And see the truth
He can only be
If you believe what he tells you
Remember who you are
What you stand for
And there will always be a way.''
Dnt take e lies of ths world they r jus a stumbling block 2 e gr8 place ahead

    ------ About the song Deceiver Of Fools performed by Within Temptation

I agree with "Anonymous | 6/4/09": the first time I read this lyrics, I immediately thought that it was referred to politicians, capitalism, manipulated media and all this stuff.

"He told the tale so many times
About the dream not meant to be
In a world of the free
(He plays with your mind)"

This is clearly relationed with the politicians. They cheat as much as they can during the electoral campaigns talking about utopias.

"He feeds on fear, poisons the truth
To gain their faith, to lead the way
To a world of decay
(He rules your heart)"

We are falling and falling in this 21st century due to the current system, dominated by a mixture of political and economic interests, and so far from real democracy.

"Please, awake and see the truth
He can only be if you believe what he tells you"

This message is very important: people who vote is maintaining the system. Stop voting, it will never change the world. And in the capitalism branch: stop buying a lot of things and spending your money in malls; that is what they need to survive. Without us, they will die. It's QUITE important to understand this.

Of course it's only my opinion hahaha.
