In A Darkened Room — Skid Row

In a darkened room Beyond the reach of Gods faith Lies the wounded, the shattered remains of love betrayed And the innocense 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 Im tortured in my trust And watch it crystalize While my salvation crumples to dust

Why cant I steer the ship before it hits the storm Ive 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
