Within Temptation recently released their new single, "Don't Pray For Me", an anthem for pursuing one's own destiny. Listen here, and watch an official music video below.
"We live in a world where cultures and beliefs are melting together, while at the same time acts of intolerance and injustice dominate the world," states Within Temptation. "Both societal issues and a rapid increase in sub-beliefs have resulted in fear, fragmentation and disconnect."
Singer Sharon den Adel adds, "'Don't Pray For Me' strives against forcing beliefs and fears onto others and bears witness to being acceptive of everyone's own journey. It is an anthem about coming to terms with the fact that beliefs can be fluid, in multiples, or frankly, different. The song is about allowing people to pursue their own destiny."
