- In A Darkened Room LyricsIn 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?
Well 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 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 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
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?
Well 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
Can I face the day when I'm tortured in my trust
And 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 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
