Within Temptation - Overcome Lyrics

Where are the heroes 
In my time of need 
Is my crying abandoned? 
Or have they gone 
Oh no 

They just tend to stand 
Out of the rain 
Thinking but not acting 
That they're not to blame 

Falling and crawling 
A fight to stand up 
Memory still haunts me 
In the dead of night 

Over and over 
I felt so small 
But one day I'll be stronger 
And you better watch out 

Chorus: 
I will overcome 
In violence there's silence 
Oh no, 
It can't be undone 
I will overcome 
Knowing that I'm not the only one 
I will overcome 
It's the only way to carry on 

Where are the saviours 
Afraid of the toll 
Sorry do my nine inch nails 
Slash your soul? 

Such heroes 
Throwing stones 
Straight at the one 
Who is standing alone? 

Twisting and turning 
It's always the same 
The truth is never honest 
When you're to blame 

Pushing and pulling 
Never give in 
One day I wish 
You see you're not so beautiful within 

Chorus 

Run and run 
Run and run 

Chorus 

I will overcome
