It really bestowes me, when my friends and family are feeling sad and alone,, I'm usually the 1st one there to lift up their chin, but yet, when I'm feeling that way.. No one is there! Why?
It's kind of like that NIN song that Johnny Cash covered before his death "Everyone I know goes away In the end"
In a darkened room
Beyond the reach of God's 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 I'm tortured
in my trust
And watch it crystalize
While my salvation crumples 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
