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
