0:25All that I know in my life
0:29I have learned on the street
0:34No magic carpet no genie no shoes on my feet
0:43Will I wake up from this nightmare
0:46A fear that chills me to the bone
0:49Though I may be one of many
0:53I feel so all alone
0:57We are the children of the night
1:03We won't go down without a fight
1:09Our voice is strong our future's bright
1:15And thanks to what we learned from you
1:18We've grown into the children of the night
1:28Left by my father with only this scar on my face
1:37Told by my mother that
1:40"No you were just a mistake"
1:46I have tasted my own hunger
1:49Sold my body to survive
1:52Some have paid to scratch the surface
1:55But they can't touch what's inside
1:59We are the children of the night
2:06We won't go down without a fight
2:12Our voice is strong our future's bright
2:18And thanks to what we learned from you
2:21We've grown into the children of the night
3:01How I long for something better
3:05Than this life I know too well
3:07Lord I know I'm bound for heaven
3:11Cause I've done my time in hell
3:15We are the children of the night
3:21We won't go down without a fight
3:28Our voice is strong our future's bright
3:33And thanks to what we learned from you
3:36We've grown into the children of the night
All that I know in my life I have learned on the street 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 future's bright And thanks to what we learned from you We've grown into the children of 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 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 future's bright And thanks to what we learned from you We've grown into the children of the night How I long for something better Than this life I know too well Lord I know I'm bound for heaven Cause I've done 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 you We've grown into the children of the night
