In a Darkened Room

In a darkened room Beyond the reach of God's faith Lies the wounded The shattered remains of love betrayed And the innocence Of a child is bought and sold In the name of the damned The rage of the angels left silent and cold Forgive me please for I know not what I do How can I keep inside the hurt I know is true Tell me when the kiss Of love becomes a lie That bears the scar of sin too deep To hide behind this fear Of running unto you Please let there be light In a darkened room All the precious times Have been put to rest again And the smile of the dawn Brings tainted lust singing my requiem Can I face the day When I'm tortured in my trust And watch it crystalize 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 lie That bears the scar of sin too deep To hide behind this fear Of running unto you Please let there be light In a darkened room
