Within Temptation - ‘Stand My Ground’ (lyrics):
I can see
When you stay low
Nothing happens
Does it feel right?
Late at night
Things I thought I'd put behind me
Haunt my mind
I just know there's no escape now
Once it sets it's eyes on you
But I won't run
Have to stare it in the eyes
Stand my ground
I won't give in
No more denying
I've gotta face it
Won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside
If I don't make it, someone else will
Stand my ground
It's all around
Getting stronger, coming closer into my world
I can feel that it's time for me to face it
Can I take it?
Though this might just be the ending
Of the life I held so dear
But I won't run
There's no turning back from here
Stand my ground
I won't give in
No more denying
I've gotta face it
Won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside
If I don't make it, someone else will
Stand my ground
All I know for sure is that I'm trying
I will always stand my ground
Stand my ground
I won't give in, (I won't give in)
I won't give up, (I won't give up)
No more denying (ah)
I've gotta face it
Won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside
If I don't make it, someone else will
Stand my ground
I won't give in
No more denying
I've gotta face it
Won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside
If I don't make it, someone else will
Stand my ground
Songwriters: Daniel Bjorn Gibson / Han Kooreneef / Robert Westerholt / Sharon Den Adel

The Gran Daddy of Rock Bands from the last 50 years and also the best...flip the page to today and this is my one other favorite Band. I love the maturity and wisdom in their lyrics and the arrangements are simply awesome! This is pure Rock, minus the childish, babyish silliness and ridicule antics of so many others who call themselves "Rock bands"!

This is my favourite comment 💕

[@NicoleChorney]

This song speaks to me on so many levels. I have Multiple Sclerosis, but have had medical issues most of my life. I'm turning 40 this year and am so proud because I have been dealing with stuff a normal person has no frame of mind to understand. I'm celebrating because I have fought off everything life has thrown at me and I am relatively sane plus, I haven't ended anyone's life. This song touches me because my whole life has been a series of lows and highs, but I have always had people to help me stand. When I could not do so on my own, I have had loved ones who carry my banner until I can hold it myself again. In turn, I help others because I understand hardship and am happy to lend whatever strength when I see others struggling.

Now I want to make some money from part-time jobs to be able to fulfill her dream and to give her tickets to their concert for her 30th birthday which is around the corner. Wish me luck...

Aside of all the talent involved, Within Temptation is connected with the best video-making productions of this niche of music. This is a real bonus to them because it causes guys like me (who are basically Bach, Beethoven, Brahms fans) to stand still for a few moments and listen. Once you do so then you notice the other admirable qualities that might otherwise get overlooked. I then started buying their CDs -- a really strange acceptance of musical excellence outside the classics.

[@NousVes-ud3ct]

More than 15 years have passed since I met this band and this song. My friends and I grew up on these songs that taught us to be strong, to be free, to stand on the side of goodness, justice, peace, because this is the Heart of everything. Then we were 14-15 years old. Now we are 30. Many of my friends have left their homeland, the government of which unleashed an unforgivable war against the civilian population of a neighboring country. Those who remain are trying to somehow help the sick and helpless fellow citizens, on whom the government did not care before, and now even more so. But every day new inhuman laws are adopted. Every day it becomes more and more senseless to speak out against, because this will be followed by prison or death. We didn't manage to stand our ground. In our land now stand madmen in whom there is no compassion left. Each of us has only a small piece of land left, and a weak light inside, which they are trying to blow out from all sides. For the last two years, I have been listening to this song almost every day - like a prayer. And I hope that I will have enough strength to defend at least my truth and protect my conscience. And today for the first time I also heard the song Wireless. And it's right about what I've always thought about. And in the epicenter of what I had to be. It is a pity that the meaning of these songs will be understood only by those who already understand that struggle is not always war, and war is not always a struggle for good.
