The Truth Beneath The Rose — Within Temtation

Give me strength to face the truth The doubt within my soul No longer I can justify The bloodshed in his name

Is it a sin to seek the truth, the truth beneath the rose? Pray with me so I will find the gate to Heaven?s door I believed it would justify the means It had a hold over me

Blinded to see The cruelty of the beast Here is the darkest side of me

The field of my dreams Deceived all I have seen Forgive me for what I have been

Pray for me 'cause I have lost my faith in holy wars This paradise denied to me 'cause I can't take no more

Has darkness taken over me Consumed my mortal soul? All my virtues sacrificed Can Heaven be so cruel?

I believed it would justify the means It had a hold over me

Blinded to see The cruelty of the beast Here is the darkest side of me

The field of my dreams Deceived all I have seen Forgive me for what I have been

I'm hoping, I'm praying I won't get lost between two hearts Follow a sin The truth lies in between

Give me the strength to face the wrong that I have done Now that I know The darkest side of me

How can blood be your salvation And justify the pain That we have caused throughout the times

Will I learn what's truly sacred Will I redeem my soul Will truth set me free

Blinded to see The cruelty of the beast Here is the darkest side of me

The field of my dreams Deceived all I have seen Forgive me for what I have been
