In a darkened room
Beyond the reach of god's faith
Lies the wounded, shattered remains of a 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 what I know not what I do
How can I keep inside
The hurt I know is true
Riff
Tell me when the kiss
Of love becomes a lie
That bears the scars 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 time
Have been put to rest again
And the smile of a 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 has crumble to dust
Why can I steer the ship
Before it hits the storm
I've fallen to the sea
But still I can swim for shore
Riff
Tell me when the kiss
Of love becomes a lie
That bears the scars of sin too deep
To hide behind this fear of running unto you
Please let there be light
In a darkened room
