I've been trying to see that man The one that keeps my soul from sin The one that keeps myself away from hell I've been looking for so long Behind the walls, behind closed doors I've been trying to see that man in me We are the children of the night There is no faith in which to hide No promises, no broken thoughts Because the truth is always there We are the children of the night A man standing on his own He fears commitment, he fears love He fears the freedom taken from himself We all have failures and regrets No man can ever be the best It is survival or defeat at last We are the children of the night A blind fold covering our eyes No promises, no broken thoughts Because the truth is always there We are the children of the night
