Within Temptation - 'Don't Pray For Me' (Visualizer)

I’m not lost in the dark.
I’m not blind to what I see.
I know the river is wide and the water is deep.
I feel the cold, my heart skips a beat.
I don’t need your absolution,
So don’t hold that sword over me.
For my confessions I don’t need a church,
I don’t need salt to know where it hurts.

Don’t pray for me, no...

I cannot breathe for you.
You’re trying over and over, denying what I feel.
And every time you bow down your head
to pray.. Don’t pray for me, don’t pray for me!

Oh, I needed a revolution.
I never had a war in mind and now
the river runs dry and the fall is deep.
The truth is dark and makes us bleed.

In hell is where I stand,
it’s where I find my inner strength.
For my confessions I don’t need a church.
I don’t need salt to know where it hurts.

Don’t pray for me, no...

I cannot breathe for you.
You’re trying over and over, denying what I feel.
And every time you bow down your head
to pray.. Don’t pray for me, don’t pray for me!

Ep κυκλοφόρησαν προ ημερών οι Within Temptation. Τιτλοφορείται "Don't Pray for Me" και περιλαμβάνει το ομότιτλο τραγούδι και άλλα τρία που είχαν κυκλοφορήσει ως single σε δύο εκδόσεις: με στίχους και ορχηστρική (instrumental).

Παρακολουθούμε το μουσικό βίντεο του ομότιτλου τραγουδιού, για το οποίο η μπάντα μας λέει: «‘Don’t Pray For Me’ strives against forcing beliefs and fears onto others and bears witness to being acceptive of everyone’s own journey. It is an anthem about coming to terms with the fact that beliefs can be fluid, multiple or frankly: different. The song is about allowing people to pursue their own destiny.»
