WITHIN TEMPTATION LYRICS

1. Paradise (What About Us?)


[feat. Tarja]

There’s no sense, the fire burns
When wisdom fails it changes all
The wheel embodies all that keeps on turning

Blood red skies, I feel so cold
No innocence, we play our role
The wheel embodies all where are we going

All in all you’d expect the wise to be wiser
Fallen from grace
All and all I guess
We should have known better, ’cause…

What about us?
Isn’t it enough,
No we’re not in paradise

This is who we are
This is what we've got
No, it's not our paradise

But it’s all we want,
And it's all that we’re fighting for
Though it’s not paradise

You and us, or I and them
There comes a time to take a stand
The wheel is watching all that keeps on burning

The venom works, it’s like a curse
A Trojan horse, when will we learn?
The wheel embodies all that keeps returning

All in all you’d expect the wise to be wiser
Fallen from grace
And all and all I guess
We should have known better, ’cause…

What about us?
Isn’t it enough,
No we’re not in paradise

This is who we are
This is what we've got
No, it's not our paradise

But it’s all we want,
And it's all that we’re fighting for
Though it’s not paradise

[Solo]

What about us?
Isn’t it enough,
No we’re not in paradise

This is who we are
This is what we've got
No, it's not our paradise

But it’s all we want,
And it's all that we’re fighting for

What about us?
Isn’t it enough,
No we’re not in paradise

This is who we are
This is what we've got
No, it's not our paradise

But it’s all we want,
And it's all that we’re fighting for
But it’s not paradise

What about us, what about us, what about us, isn't it enough?
What about us, what about us, what about us, isn't it enough?
What about us, what about us, what about us, isn't it enough?
What about us, what about us, what about us, isn't it enough!


2. Let Us Burn (Demo Version)


The darkness has come to the roses
The fire is reaching the air
The colours that I have created
Are suddenly flying away

I'm not fighting myself, will not follow
'Cause my choices are mine, it's my fate
And I'll never bow down from the sorrow
I'll face all that is coming my way

The lying, the devil, the silence
Embracing the world on the edge

[Chorus:]
Let us burn
Let us burn
The night in the skies here tonight
Let us burn
Let us burn
In this fire that makes us yearn
We're fighting our fear of the silence
We're running through walls where they stand
Let us burn
Let us burn
Let us burn

I'm searching no more for tomorrow
I reach for the skies while I can
The unknown will always be waiting
My last day I'll jump in its hands

Why, why don't you let me burn?
Why don't you come down
And break out and let me burn?

Oh why, why don't you let me burn?
Why don't you let me burn?
Why don't you let me burn?

Oh why?
Chasing the demons in my mind
Oh why me?
Waiting for chains to throw me to the ground

The darkness has come to the roses
And the fire is reaching the air

[Chorus]


3. Silver Moonlight (Demo Version)


Till another little ray
Care about the day your heart breaks up
When you lose your way

I'm hellbound in this life
Keep fighting the coldest wars
It's always been like this but don't know why

And sleeping in your mind
You feel it, ties you down
Going down
I'll go by

No
Screaming at the walls of fire
Frozen into me
Hunted for the vertical sealed before that
It's where I wanna be
Screaming at the walls of fire
But I'm still running free
In the silver moonlight
I can't breathe
Wooooo

These days are only now
Breathe in the coldest lies
I think it's only what you have in mind
Hold onto the best of you
I hit the pavement
Going down
Don't know why

No
Screaming at the walls of fire
Frozen into me
Hunted for the vertical sealed before that
It's where I wanna be
Screaming at the walls of fire
But I'm still running free
In the silver moonlight
I can't breathe

No, I'm patient
But this colours that I live
All alone in this life
I cannot see
Dreams we hide are solid
But we can't let her bleed
Maybe what we make
Can you see?
Ohh

(I will fight in this life
Defying the coldest wars
It's always been like this
But don't know why)

No
Screaming at the walls of fire
Frozen into me
Hunted for the vertical sealed before that
It's where I wanna be
Screaming at the walls of fire
I'm still running free
In the silver moonlight
I can't breathe
Wooooo
(Your fear will chain you down)

Till I know a little rain
Care about the day your heart breaks up
When you lose your way


4. Dog Days (Demo Version)


Waking in the dead of night
Hold onto this life
Running to what's wrong or right
Seems to be a thin line
Fighting for a wasted love
Fighting to survive
Oh won't you please forget
Won't you please forget

These are the dog days
These are the dog days
They'll never go away [x2]

1, 2, 3, 4
What are you waiting for? [x2]

These are the dog days
These are the dog days

Waking in the dead of night
Hold onto this life
Running to what's wrong or right
Seems to be a thin line
Fighting for a wasted love
Fighting to survive
Oh won't you please forget
Won't you please forget

These are the dog days
These are the dog days
They'll never go away [x2]

1, 2, 3, 4
What are you waiting for? [x2]

These are the dog days
These are the dog days

Embracing the heart
To find the loss
Running down a path that
I think i need to know
When you've think you've won
You're still losing after all

These are the dog days
These are the dog days
They'll never go away [x2]

1, 2, 3, 4
What are you waiting for? [x2]

These are the dog days
These are the dog days
