Em
In a darkened room
C
Beyond the reach of god's faith
D C
Lies the wounded, shattered remains of a love betrayed
Em
And the innocence
C
Of a child is bought and sold
D
In the name of the damned
C D
The rage of the angels left silent and cold
A
Forgive me please
Em C D
For what I know not what I do
A
How can I keep inside
Em D
The hurt I know is true
Riff
C
Tell me when the kiss
Em
Of love becomes a lie
G
That bears the scars of sin too deep
D C Em
To hide behind this fear of running unto you
D
Please let there be light
In a darkened room
Em
All the precious time
C
Have been put to rest again
D
And the smile of a dawn
C
Brings tainted lust singing my requiem
Em
Can I face the day
C
When I'm tortured in my trust
D
And watch it crystalize
C D
While my salvation has crumble to dust
A
Why can I steer the ship
Em C D
Before it hits the storm
A
I've fallen to the sea
Em D
But still I can swim for shore
Riff
