Children of the Night

All that I know in my life
I’ve learned on the streets
No Magic carpet
No Genie
No Shoes on my feet
Will I wake up from this nightmare
A fear that chills me to the bone
Though I may be one of many
I feel so all alone.

We are the children of the night
We won’t go down without a fight
Our voice is strong
Our futures bright
And thanks to what we’ve learned from you
We’ve grown in to the children of the night

Left with my father
With only this scar on my face
Told by mother that
I was only a mistake
I have tasted my own hunger
Sold my body to survive
Some have paid to scratch the surface
But they can’t touch what’s inside

We are the children of the night
We won’t go down without a fight
Our voice is strong
Our futures bright
And thanks to what we’ve learned from you
We’ve grown in to the children of the night

How I long for something better
From this life
I know too well
Lord, I know I’m bound for Heaven
Because I’ve done my in Hell

We are the children of the night
We won’t go down without a fight
Our voice is strong
Our futures bright
And thanks to what we’ve learned from you
We’ve grown in to the children of the night
