In a Darkened Room

Yes, "Why can't I steer the ship before it hits the storm?". Life is always unpredictable, especially my own damned life. Almost everytime, when "I've fallen into the sea, but still I swim for shore". I try, all the time, not to give up and maybe that's why I survived times and again...

I will swim safely to shore again. I hope.



In a Darkened Room
(by Skid-Row, in the album "Slave To The Grind" in 1991)

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 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 crystallize while my salvation it crumples 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 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
