Temple from the Within Lyrics

Make me feel serenity when all is revealed
so easy to look back in life and question
but I must seek to find the strength to push forward (forward)
Forward

I want to see what's so beautiful inside
As we drink of life
absolve me through your suffering

Make me feel serenity when all is revealed
so easy to look back in life and question
but I must seek to find the strength to push
Forward (Forward)
Forward

you teach me
to inscribe these words
upon my heart
you cover me
with the shadow
of your hand

Everything that tears us down

I will not lose myself
I in everything that tears us down
because you stand by me
There's no one to blame
No one to blame for my transgressions

you teach me to inscribe these words
upon my heart
you cover me with the shadow
of your hand

I will not lose myself
I in everything that tears me down
Because you stand
stand by me

Want to see what's so beautiful inside
as we drink of life
absolve me through your suffering

I will not lose myself
I in everything that tears me down
Because you stand
stand by me

There's no one to blame
No one to blame

Jesse Leach in interview: "Temple From the Within" is my ode to spirituality and the way I feel towards life. Times when I feel I can't keep pushing . I find a way and I know it's not me. It's another force so that's me paying my respects."

I love this band, cause the lyrics are so possitve, most bands are really dark and negative (not that this is a particularly bad thing, its just nice to see a change) but they still sound so heavy. Best band ever. I love Howard, I think he fits in perfectly.

these are the correct lyrics to this song

this song rocks, its about jessie's relationship with Jesus Christ, and it's all about knowing that there is something out there.

Definitely one of the best KsE songs ever. I like Jesse's vocals better than Howard's, but there's no way they could have found a better replacement than Howard. I mean, he was on tour with the band A WEEK after he and his drummer joined the band! Plus he can screech like the best of them ("the best of them" being Jesse). But I still like Jesse's voice better.

really sad sounding song :'( great tune

Yes, Finalpoet, you're correct. This song is completely about Jesse's dedification to God, Jesus Christ.

The singer and drummer both came from the same band (Blood has been Shed), but they joined at separate times. The first time I saw Killswitch Engage, they had Howard, but still had Tom Gomes playing drums for them (the In Flames/Killswitch Engage/Sentenced/Dark Tranquillity tour in 2002).
