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 burns the scar of sin too deep
To hide behind this fear of running
unto you
Please let there be light
In a darkened room
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/s/skid+row/in+a+darkened+room_20125980.html ]
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 into the sea but still
I swim for shore

Tell me when the kiss of love
becomes a lie
That burns the scar of sin too deep
To hide behind this fear of running
unto you
Please let there be light
In a darkened room
