In a darkened room
In a darkened room beyond the reach of God's faithLies the wounded, the shattered remains of love betrayedAnd the innocence of a child is bought and soldIn the name of the damned the rage of the angels left silent and cold
Forgive me please for I know not what I doHow can I keep inside the hurt I know is true?
Well tell me when the kiss of love becomes a lieThat bears the scar of sin too deepTo hide behind this fear of running unto youPlease let there be light in a darkened room
All the precious times have been put to rest againAnd the smile of the dawn brings tainted lust singing my requiemCan I face the day when I'm tortured in my trustAnd watch it crystallize while my salvation it crumbles to dust
Why can't I steer the ship before it hits the storm?I've fallen to the sea but still I swim for shore
Tell me when the kiss of love becomes a lieThat bears the scar of sin too deepTo hide behind this fear of running unto youPlease let there be light in a darkened room
