Within Temptation - Our Solemn Hour lyrics

Santus, espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour
Santus, espiritus, insanity is all around us
(santus, espiritus...)

In my darkest hours
I could not foresee
That the time could turn so fast to this degree
Can't believe my eyes
How can you be so blind
Is the heart of stone nowhere but fear inside
Time keeps on slipping away
And we haven't learned
So in the end they won't have free sky

Santus, espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour
Santus, espiritus, insanity is all around us
Santus, espiritus is this what we deserve
Can we break free
From chains of neverending agony

Aren't they themselves to blame
The misery, the pain
That I will let go
Allow to let it grow
If we can't restrain
The beast which dwells inside
It will find its way somehow, somewhere in time

Will we remember all of the suffering
Cause if we may heal the fear in vain

Santus, espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour
Santus, espiritus, insanity is all around us
Santus, espiritus is this what we deserve
Can we break free
From chains of neverending agony

Santus, espiritus
Santus, espiritus

Santus, espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour
Santus, espiritus, insanity is all around us
Santus, espiritus is this what we deserve
Can we break free
From chains of neverending agony
Santus, espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour
Santus, espiritus, insanity is all around us
Santus, espiritus is this what we deserve
Can we break free
From chains of neverending agony
