Our Solemn Hour Tab

by Within Temptation


                                               
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?
