Lyrics:

The child without a name grew up to be the hand
To watch you, to shield you or kill on demand
The choice he'd made he could not comprehend
His blood a grim secret they had to command
He's torn between his honor and the true love of his life
He prayed for both but was denied
So many dreams were broken and so much was sacrificed
Was it worth the ones we loved and had to leave behind?
So many years have past, who are the noble and the wise?
Will all our sins be justified?
The curse of his powers tormented his life
Obeying the crown was a sinister price
His soul was tortured by love and by pain
He surely would flee but the oath made him stay
He's torn between his honor and the true love of his life
He prayed for both but was denied
So many dreams were broken and so much was sacrificed
Was it worth the ones we loved and had to leave behind?
So many years have past, who are the noble and the wise?
Will all our sins be justified?
Please forgive me for the sorrow, for leaving you in fear
For the dreams we had to silence, that's all they'll ever be
Still I'll be the hand that serves you
Though you'll not see that it is me
So many dreams were broken and so much was sacrificed
Was it worth the ones we loved and had to leave behind?
So many years have past, who are the noble and the wise?
Will all our sins be justified?

A week ago I watched them live for the first time. I don't have the faintest idea how Sharon manages to sing live in such a perfect voice. I mean, you've got to breathe. You've got to breathe even more if you jump like a crazy person for 2 hours and she does that. Unplugged versions showed that she can sing in other ways than sweet sharonish voice that we know, so it's not like she opens her mouth and there's the voice. It must be very demanding. So how the heck does she do that for two hours?

i wonder...how many people who watch this video are dutch and actually understand the things they say in the beginning? Well, either way, Ik hou van jullie, Within Temptation!

[natigueto]

Awesome band, beautiful singer and such an angelic voice! Within Temptation is amazing! <3

[1989SupraGuyFIN]

This is epic!

[belmorra24]

Is this song written for Star Wars? It seems to be dedicated to Anakin Skywalker (Darth Vader).

[gunslinger072]

@efgriebel I have to disagree, I think the guy did an outstanding job with it.

[Thaurin95]

33 people are angels who can't sing like her!

[Elize60]

@Ime8eos you are so damn right.. ;) But, the angels doesn't even get close to her beautiful voice.. <3 LoveuSharon.

[man0vv]

all about this song can be rounded with one word: infcukincredible...

[efgriebel]

I love this song, but the quality of this video doesn't nearly do it justice!
