Children of the Night

Children of the Night
Music & Lyrics: Erik Martensson/Johan Becker

I keep my head above the water
As the light goes down
Like a lamb brought to the slaughter
What have I become

I keep running with the children of the night
Cross my heart and hope I'm never gonna die - No
In the shadows of fate
I am trying to escape
The children of the night

I lay awake afraid of dreaming
I can hardly breathe
Twisted faces hear the screaming
Singing me to sleep

I keep running with the children of the night
Cross my heart and hope I'm never gonna die - No
In the shadows of fate
I am trying to escape
The children of the night

I'm waking up another day
(Another dream, another place)
Weight of the world won't fade away
But the harder I try the deeper I fall
Inside the well I've seen it all

I keep running with the children of the night
Cross my heart and hope I'm never gonna die - No
In the shadows of fate
I am trying to escape
The children of the night
