All that I know in my life, I have learned on the street magic carpet, no genie, no shoes on my feet Will I 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 the night We won't go down without a fight Our voice is strong, our future's bright And thanks to what we learned from you We've grown into the children the night
Left by my father with only this scar on my face Told by my mother that, \"No, you were just a mistake\" I have tasted my own Sold my body to survive Some have paid to scratch the surface But they can't touch what's inside
We are the children the night We won't go down without a fight Our voice is strong, our future's And thanks to what we learned from you We've grown into the children of the night
How I long for something Than this life I know too well Lord, I know I'm bound for heaven Cause I've my time in hell
We are the children of the night We won't go down without a fight Our voice is strong, our future's bright And thanks to what we learned from We've grown into the children of the night
