Within Temptation - Our Solemn Hour Lyrics






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?

    Sanctus Espiritus means Holy Spirit

    R.... M....

    Thats what i thought at first but then i think maybe it means sacred spirits since a lot of these types of bands love spouting new age nonsense.

    While the lyrics do allude to the Battle of Britain (darkest hour, Churchill’s speech)
    But honestly, I feel like it’s about the Holocaust.

    German citizens saw the antisemitism grow but they buried their heads and ignored it.

    Britain and France repeatedly stoped Poland from mobilizing it’s army before the invasion.
    And even after the invasion, Britain and France declared war on Germany but did nothing to help Poland fend off the Soviets and the Nazis.

    France started to take back Polish land the Nazis had taken... They were winning but then they just stoped advancing.
    Then France fell to the Nazis.


    And well...
    America and Britain knew about the Holocaust as it was happening.
    A Polish resistance fighter voluntarily went to Auschwitz to find out what was happening there. He smuggled information out and begged Britain to aid the Polish Resistance to liberate the camp. After 3 years he escaped with two others. He escaped just so he could attempt to liberate Auschwitz from the outside.
    Britan refused- they didn’t even bomb the train tracks to Auschwitz.

    America and Britain both turned away refugees trying to escape the Holocaust....



    WWII just is the embodiment of the worst of humanity.

  87. a.... v....

    When the Trebuchets are destroying the wall and you're waiting nervously for the engagement with the enemy thinking if you will see tomorrow thinking about your home hundreds of kilometres ( or miles ) away and your family and friends . You know the enemy is there waiting for you . You see your comrades that ate with you slept with you travelled with you played and trained and sheared so many memories with you and you don't know if you're gonna spend another day with them if they will die before you or not .
    Thinking nervously about how are you gonna die and regret the day you joined the army .
    You start to think if this war is worth it if you will see home again and pray to god that the enemy arrow will hit you in the heart so you die immediately and not suffering and dying for days because of infection .

  91. A.... ....

    Sadly seeing how the world turns to the rasism side does make me shiver. I don't want that the times this song stands for will be repeated.
