Within Temptation

Within Temptation are a Dutch symphonic metal band founded in 1996 by vocalist Sharon den Adel and guitarist Robert Westerholt. Their music is described as symphonic metal, although their earlier material, such as Enter, was gothic metal. In an interview, den Adel said they fell into a symphonic rock genre with various influences. In a later interview with 3VOOR12, Sharon stated that "we consider ourselves more a symphonic rock band ... we are in my opinion no gothic band". more »

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

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

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

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

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

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
