New Within Silence Christmas Track: Flame of Peace

Within Silence (Bandcamp page) wrote:New Christmas single from the melodic power metal band Within Silence.

Richard Germanus of Within Silence comments:
"We decided to record a Christmas single this year as we wanted to give you all something uplifting and hopeful in these uncertain times. The melodies of the song inspired me to write lyrics speaking about peace during the Christmas time. Are you one of the fortunate people who can enjoy Christmas in peace? This should be the time of joy and happiness and it's so sad that while some of us enjoy Christmas Eve with our loved ones, there are people struggling and maybe even forget about Christmas. It's not only about this day but what is a better time for peace than "the time of peace"? Everyone should have the right to live in peace, everywhere. Let's think about those in need this Christmas and light a candle and pray for them."

Within Silence are currently in the studio working on their third album, to be released in 2023.
lyrics
Can you hear those melodies?
Do they sound like songs of peace?
Do they pound like firing guns?
This day should be a bloodless one
Marching armies in the snow
follow their orders during war
In the air sounds a distant call
of a Christmas Truce for all

Wherever you are, wherever you live
Can you enjoy Christmas Eve?
Can you see your loved ones and hold their hands?
Please do it and pray for those suffering far away

Can they stop the war tonight?
Is it really worth the fight?
Can they lay down their arms?
This should be a silent night!

Wherever you are, wherever you live
Can you enjoy Christmas in peace?
Can you light a candle on your table?
Please do it and pray for those suffering far away
